Transfer Student Flow
The transfer student flow dashboards provide a series of reports to track and identify degree progression measures such as retention, persistence and graduation performance of undergraduate transfer student cohorts. The dashboards include student profile/demographics, term-by-term retention, persistence and graduation numbers, term-by-term enrolled and not-enrolled numbers and access to underlying student data. Students are tracked starting from the term of entry up until the current term. There are 8 different cohorts available through the dashboards.
The dashboards may be utilized to review our Performance and Accountability metrics for transfer students.

PBF 9a. BOG Choice: FCS AA Transfer Two-Year Graduation Rate [Full-Time students]:This transfer cohort is defined as undergraduates entering in fall term (or summer continuing to fall) from the Florida College System with an Associate in Arts (AA) degree. The rate is the percentage of the initial cohort that has either graduated from the same institution by the summer term of their third academic year. Only full-time students are used in the calculation. Students who were flagged as enrolled in advanced graduate programs that would not earn a bachelor’s degree were not excluded. Source: State University Database System (SUDS).
KPI-5: FCS AA Transfer Three-Year Graduation Rate [full-& part-time students]: Same definition as above except both full-time and part-time students are used in the calculation.

The ability to view the underlying "Drill through" pages is based on individual access to the report.
