Abstract

This dataset consists of statements by CUNY students, staff, and faculty concerning their knowledge of and experiences with vertical transfer (transfer from a community college to a bachelor's college). The statements were obtained via open-ended survey questions and focus groups. Dozens of staff, thousands of students, and thousands of faculty participated.
