Abstract	In Indiana, about 25 percent of students who enter college for the first time at an Indiana public institution transfer to a different campus or institution at least once within six years--a mobility pattern that underscores the complexity of postsecondary pathways and the importance of better understanding the role transfer plays in helping individuals and the state reach degree attainment goals. As a supplement to the Indiana Commission for Higher Education's College Completion report, this analysis looks at which students transfer, where they go, and how many succeed. It explains that: (1) The vast majority of transfers (85%) transfer without a prior degree or credential, and on average, transfers tend to be younger, have lower first-year GPAs, and are less likely than non-transfer students to be white; (2) The majority of transfers remain in state, with most enrolling at Ivy Tech Community Colleges and Indiana University campuses; (3) Students who transfer from 2- to 4-year public colleges are about twice as likely to succeed as those who transfer from 4- to 2-year public colleges (42% compared to 21%), and students who earn an associate prior to transfer have higher (about 10 percentage points) success rates than those with no prior; and (4) The amount of transfer credit accepted at Indiana public institutions (about 1 million credit hours per year) has increased by about 25% since 2007, and about 40% of graduates earn transfer credit on their way to a degree.
