Over 2 million people with some college, but no degree (SCND) in Texas in 2018. Obvious concern about cohort default rate implications. Thanks @NSClearinghouse for this valuable report!
Reading through the @NSClearinghouse Some College, No Degree report this morning and there's lots of good data in here on re-enrollment rates, completion rates, and state-level data! #highered nscresearchcenter.org/wp-con…

The latest data on bachelor’s degree completion for students transferring from two-year to four-year colleges don’t paint a pretty picture, particularly for students transferring to for-profit institutions. @forbes forbes.com/sites/michaeltnie…

Highlights from the report: -The national completion rate for the fall 2012 cohort of first-time postsecondary students is 58% -Black & Hispanic student completion rate increased to 48% & 57% -Completions at 4-year schools for students who started at 2-year schools rose to 15.8%

A5: Nationally, 80% of FT students, 21% of exclusively PT students, and 40% of mixed-enrollment students who started in 2011 completed a college credential within six years. Clearly, enrolling PT is a disadvantage, but many students have no choice. #NewsHourChats 2/2

As I am finishing drafting my concluding chapter for my dissertation on state transfer policies, I am grateful for the work that @NSClearinghouse has done on the topic of transfer. We would not understand the national scope of transfer without their data. #transfermatters

Clearinghouse research indicates that thirty-seven percent of students today transfer at least once in their college careers. Nearly half change schools more than once. wapo.st/2GNoyuj
