Source: U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard. Transfer rate is the share of entrants transferring to a four-year institution; it is published for roughly a third of community colleges, and a blank means unpublished rather than zero. Which specific credits transfer is set by agreements between individual institutions and is not published nationally β€” confirm with both colleges before enrolling.
