UNITE-LA Publication: Student-Centered Transfer Redesign Process

Over the course of two summers, UNITE-LA worked closely with groups from California State University, Dominguez Hills and California Polytechnic University, Pomona and their respective feeder community colleges to explore institutional data, hear from students, and assess transfer barriers and opportunities. Collectively, participants from transfer offices, academic affairs, admissions, academic departments, and student services identified root causes to problems that students experience and ideated and piloted solutions to support student success. This new report on the student-centered transfer redesign process details what it took for campus partners to come together, critically assess their own policies and practices, and work together to make sustainable changes that have transformed their approach to the transfer system.
