Abstract	The Transfer Tracking System at Maryland's Frederick Community College (FCC) is designed to monitor the effectiveness of the college's transfer function by keeping track of student requests for transcripts to be sent to other institutions. Using this system, a study was undertaken at FCC to determine outcomes for the college's transfer function for 1990-92 by requesting confirmation of enrollment from receiving institutions and surveying students who transferred from the college regarding their experiences. An audit of transcripts requested from 1989-90 identified 21 institutions that accounted for 88% of all requests. For 1990-91, 1,341 transcripts were sent to these institutions, while 346 students were confirmed as having transferred. For 1991-92, 2,181 transcripts were sent and 423 students were confirmed as having transferred. For 1991, the transfer rate was calculated at 30.6% based on the number of students indicating intent to transfer, earning at least 12 credits in total unduplicated credit enrollment, and transferring successfully. Responses to surveys from 51% of the 1990-92 transfers revealed the following: (1) 97.2% of the 1991 and 98.3% of the 1992 transfers were satisfied or very satisfied with their academic preparation for transfer; (2) 78.7% of the 1991 and 67.1% of the 1992 group were satisfied or very satisfied with the transfer advising they received; (3) in 1991, 59.8% had earned an Associate's Degree prior to transfer, while 50.6% had done so in 1992; (4) in 1991, 48.6% lost no credits in transfer, compared to 49% in 1992; and (5) 14.7% in 1991 and 15.9% in 1992 received financial assistance at their new institution based on scholastic achievement at FCC.
