| Whakarāpopotonga: | The Independent Transfer Pathways in North Carolina Project served as a catalyst in forging a culture of cooperation between community colleges and independent colleges and universities in North Carolina by creating a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between the two systems. The project focused on developing discipline-specific articulation agreements, exploring financial aid options, and identifying best practices for advising. The partner campuses worked together to create a "culture of transfer" to ensure that students receive the most comprehensive information and are carefully advised from their first year at a two-year college until graduation with a bachelor's degree and to provide transfer students additional opportunities to seamlessly pursue higher education at a small to mid-sized independent college or university. The Independent Transfer Pathways Project highlights the value and effectiveness of collaboration across departments and across sectors to support community college transfer students in enrolling at and earning a bachelor's degree from four-year institutions. By bringing together and forging relationships among an enthusiastic and dedicated community of senior leaders, deans, faculty, and staff from community colleges and independent four-year institutions across North Carolina, the Independent Transfer Pathways Project greatly enhanced efforts to remove obstacles that reduce historical effectiveness with the transfer student population. |
