Abstract	A study that investigated variables associated with the transfer process and the academic performance of students of the Lehigh County Community College (LCCC) who transferred to 4-year institutions during a defined fourteen and one-half month period is summarized. Information was sought as to colleges attended by the LCCC transfers, the validity of the findings of a previous study as to mean grade point average at both LCCC and the receiving schools, data on 11 variables for LCCC students enrolled at 75 colleges and universities, and the prediction of academic success of LCCC students at the transfer institutions. The results and their implications are noted, and the study data are tabulated. (DB)
