Transfer students are students who begin their college education at one institution and then transfer to another institution to complete their degree. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as wanting to be closer to home, seeking a better academic program, or financial considerations. Research on transfer students often focuses on their experiences transitioning to a new institution, their academic success and persistence, and the factors that influence their decision to transfer. Understanding the unique challenges and opportunities faced by transfer students is important for higher education institutions to better support their success.
