Tradition of Transfer
• Long history of students transferring to Old Dominion from VCCS institutions
• Some information about how they fare through “Guideline 8” reporting, but . . .

Need for A More Comprehensive Study
• Guideline 8 only includes students:– Who enter the University in fall
semester– As degree-seeking students
• Because many students initially enter as non-degree students across all three semesters, the need for a more comprehensive study was identified

New Transfer Study Design
• Included all students with prior VCCS courses transferred to Old Dominion
• Enrolled at ODU for the first-time between 1990-91 and 2000-01
• Had VCCS degree or most transfers hours from a VCCS institution

Definitions• Main VCCS institution - campus
from which the highest number of transfer hours taken and/or from which the student earned an associate’s degree
• Students starting at ODU, who later transferred VCCS courses were eliminated from the analysis
• VCCS degrees awarded were obtained from the VCCS Research office
