目前的转学文献中缺少的一个组成部分是，社区大学生在其教育旅程的早期与学士学位机构的教师和/或顾问的接触，例如与学士学位学院或大学的转学顾问或教师会面，如何影响他们的长期转学结果。我们的研究解决了这一差距，利用纵向调查数据和倾向得分匹配。研究结果揭示了早期接触与转学之间的正相关关系，这表明当学生接触到学士学位机构的教师和顾问并可能得到他们的支持时，他们可能会为向上转学过程做好更好的准备。本研究强调转学接收端在协助社区大学生实现转学愿望方面所扮演的角色。更大的转学研究议程必须继续深入研究学士学位机构在转学前后准备和支持学生方面发挥实质性作用的具体方式。
A missing component in the current transfer literature is how community college students’ exposure to faculty and/or advisors at baccalaureate institutions early in their educational journey, such as meeting with transfer advisors or faculty members from a baccalaureate college or university, may shape their longer-term transfer outcomes. Our research addresses this gap, drawing upon longitudinal survey data and propensity score matching. The findings reveal a positive relationship between early exposure and transfer, suggesting that when students gain exposure to and potentially receive support from faculty and advisors at baccalaureate institutions, they may be better prepared for the upward transfer process. Our study highlights the role played by the transfer-receiving end in assisting community college students to fulfill their transfer aspirations. The larger transfer research agenda must continue to delve into the specific ways in which baccalaureate institutions can play a substantive role in preparing and supporting students both prior to and after transfer.
