Demarginalizing Transfer
January 13, 2023
In 2022, we published 50 blog posts in “Beyond Transfer” elevating the insights of researchers, practitioners, equity-minded reformers and students themselves. Amid the tremendous diversity of contributors and topics included in the 2022 lineup, the unifying thread was each author’s commitment to leveling the playing field for the growing share of students who attend multiple institutions and acquire learning in multiple settings on their way to a credential. The pieces we included reflected advances in the field nationwide and highlighted:
- Leading-edge research on transfer and credit mobility;
- New and improved directions in practice-based work on transfer; and
- Next-level policy and advocacy efforts aimed at mobilizing influencers and connecting the dots among transfer student success, equity, and upward mobility through postsecondary attainment.
In addition to individual submissions highlighting the work of institutions in more than a dozen states, the blog also featured multiple posts from important groups like the Beyond Transfer Policy Advisory Board and the A2B research team at CUNY, as well as from key intermediaries like NASH, the National Association of System Heads, and AACRAO, the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers.
