Two-thirds of African Americans attending college in California begin at a community college, yet over half wind up leaving without any degree or transferring to university. This research provides findings from a rigorous study of the factors that impact African American students' likelihood of transfer and shares concrete recommendations that those serving a wide variety of roles at the college, district, and system levels can implement to facilitate transfer among African American students.
