Abstract | Descriptive statistics are presented on those students in Florida's State University System (SUS) who were previously enrolled in one of the state's 28 public community colleges. A series of tables present fall term data for 1979 through 1981, including information on students' sex, age, and race; SUS enrollment rate of community college students; credits transferred; distribution of students by the university at which they were registered and the community college from which they transferred; grade point average (GPA); and students' majors. Highlighted findings included the following: (1) the total number of transfer students attending the SUS increased from 34,344 in 1979, to 36,075 in 1980, to 39,470 in 1981; (2) males outnumbered females by 2% in 1979 and in 1980, but females outnumbered males in 1981 by less than 1%; (3) proportionately, black student representation declined from 7.5% in 1979 to 6.7% in 1981, while white student representation has declined from 81.4% to 79.1%; (4) Hispanic representation increased from 7.3% to 9.4% during this period; (5) the mean age of students decreased from 25 in 1979 to 24 in 1981; (6) students tended to complete their university work or otherwise leave after approximately 3 years; (7) 76.6% of the transfer students in 1981 transferred 60 semester hours or more upon entering the SUS; and (8) 82.8% of the transfer students earned a GPA of 2.0 or higher while enrolled at the SUS.
