| Abstract | In 2016, the Research and Planning Group for California Community Colleges (RP Group) launched the "Through the Gate" transfer study, aimed to identify strategies for increasing transfer among "high-leverage learners" in the California Community Colleges (CCC)--individuals who have completed all or most of their transfer requirements, but who do not make it "through the gate" to a university. Phase 1 of "Through the Gate" included quantitative research to understand the transfer landscape and identify where California is suffering the greatest transfer leaks, determining: (1) how many students in California arrived at the transfer gate, but did not go through; and (2) who they are and where they reside. Building off the wealth of knowledge gained during its first phase, Phase 2 of "Through the Gate" set out to answer the following question: For students whose course-taking indicates they are close to the gate, which factors are most salient as they decide whether or not to transfer to a university? This technical report provides additional detail on the Phase 2 research highlighted in "Students Speak Their Truth about Transfer: What They Need to Get Through the Gate" (Cooper et al., 2020). This report begins with an overview of the methodology for this phase, including: (1) the sampling methods used to arrive at the two main sources of data (the survey of 809 students across 31 colleges and interviews with a subset of 39 survey respondents); and (2) the approach to these two components of the research. Then, the survey and interview findings, including a presentation of the demographics and key characteristics of participants, an outline of transfer motivators and challenges impacting student transfer, a discussion of sources tapped to navigate the transfer journey, and a list of advice from student interviewees to their colleges for improving transfer policies and practices. Following this, the authors outline the research limitations and then summarize the conclusions from this project phase.
