1 TRANSFER, ENROLLMENT AND PERFORMANCE OF UH COMMUNITY COLLEGE ASSOCIATE IN ARTS GRADUATES AT UH MĀNOA SPECIAL REPORT Institutional Research Office University of Hawai i September 2005

2 University of Hawai>i Community College Associate in Arts Graduates Transfer, Enrollment and Performance at UH Mānoa This report presents information on students who transfer from the UH Community Colleges to UH Mānoa, having first earned an Associate in Arts degree. The enrollment and completion characteristics of these students are examined and their academic performance is compared to that of first-time freshmen at UH Mānoa. The purpose of the study is to present the transfer, enrollment and completion characteristics of the AA graduates and to determine if there are any meaningful differences in performance between these students and UH Mānoa first-time freshmen. By extension, the study addresses the question as to whether or not transfer students from the UH Community Colleges are adequately prepared for study at the four-year campuses. This report raises many additional questions and is intended as a precursor to further research. Methodology Groups of Associate in Arts graduates from the UH Community Colleges were isolated from end-of-semester computer files. Lists of these AA graduates were compiled, by UHCC campus, for the spring 1997 to spring 2003 semesters. First-time freshmen cohorts at UH Mānoa were isolated from fall semester census computer files. Lists of these cohorts were compiled for the fall 1995 to fall 2003 semesters. Both sets of lists were matched against UH Mānoa end-of-semester files to extract enrollment, completion and performance data. The end-of-semester files used included summer sessions and fall semesters from 1997 to 2003 and spring semesters from 1998 to Several characteristics of the data merit comment. First, students were not tracked individually across semesters. Rather, each list of AA graduates was matched against each UH Mānoa end-of-semester file. Therefore, the counts shown in the tables indicate the total number of students from each AA graduate cohort that were enrolled at UH Mānoa in a given semester. Continuous enrollment of individual students across semesters is not assured. Second, performance indicators are limited to averages. The number of records included in each average varies widely from campus to campus and across semesters. Third, the data shown for UH Mānoa enrollment and completion were taken from the Mānoa tracking system, while the data shown for UH Mānoa performance come from the census computer files. These groups of students are slightly different in that the tracking system data may include students other than freshmen. Tables Table 1 shows transfer rates for UHCC Associate in Arts graduates into UH Mānoa by semester of first entrance. Cohorts are identified by campus of origin and by spring semester of graduation. To make viewing easier, the years of enrollment are identified generically. For example, the fall semester of Year 1 for the 1997 cohort is fall 1997; the spring semester of Year 1 is spring For the 2000 cohort, the fall semester of Year 1 is fall 2000, the spring semester of Year 1 is spring 2001, and so forth.

3 Table 2 shows enrollment of AA graduates at UH Mānoa across semesters. The numbers in Table 2 differ from Table 1 in that the counts in Table 2 are duplicated, showing the total number of students from each cohort enrolled per semester, whereas in Table 1 each student is counted only once (in the first semester in which that student transfers). Table 2A provides enrollment rate calculations, that is, the percentage of students from each AA graduate cohort enrolled per semester. Table 3 provides completion data for the AA transfers. The counts are cumulative annual completions as measured at the end of the Spring semesters at UH Mānoa. The sums include completions during the preceding summer sessions and fall semesters. The completion rates shown are cumulative completions as a percentage of the unduplicated total of AA transfers enrolled at UH Mānoa. (The denominator used in the completion rate calculations includes only those AA graduates who enrolled at some point at UH Mānoa.) Table 4 shows performance data for the AA transfers, measured at the end of the first year of enrollment at UH Mānoa. Table 5 provides data on academic standing for the AA transfers. Appendix A shows data on UH Community College graduates by degree objective for the seven spring semesters included in the study. Tables 6 and 6A provide enrollment data for UH Mānoa first-time students, while Tables 7 and 7A provide data on cumulative completions. As mentioned previously, these figures come from the UH Mānoa tracking system and are for new (first-time) students. The figures shown differ from those previously released nationally and in graduation and retention reports, which include only full-time, first-time freshmen. The figures reported here include both full-time and part-time students. Table 8 shows performance data for fall semester UH Mānoa first-time freshmen cohorts as measured at the end of their first year of enrollment; in contrast, Table 8A shows performance data for these same cohorts as measured at the end of their third year of enrollment. Tables 9 and 9A show data on academic standing for these cohorts as measured at the end of the first and third years of enrollment, respectively. Enrollment and Completion of AA Transfers! The vast majority of AA graduates who eventually transfer to UH Mānoa do so in the first few semesters following completion of the AA degree (Table 1 & Figure 1). For the Spring 1997 and Spring 1998 cohorts, the percentage of the total Associate in Arts graduates who eventually transferred to UH Mānoa had reached 42% by the end of the seventh year after graduation (Table 1 & Figure 2). Results varied widely by campus, with Kapi>olani CC and Honolulu CC posting the highest percentages at 70% and 63%, respectively (average of the results for the two spring cohorts).! In the fall semester immediately following spring graduation from a UH Community College, the number of AA graduates enrolled at UH Mānoa averaged 156 (Table 2 & Figure 3). Total enrollment of a given cohort tends to peak in the second fall semester after graduation (average of 29%), and declines thereafter (Table 2A & Figure 4). By the end of the seventh year after graduation, only 3% of the Spring 1997 cohort were still enrolled.

4 ! Enrollment rates of AA graduates varied considerably by UHCC campus. Kapi>olani CC showed the highest average initial fall semester enrollment rate, at 49%, with the enrollment rate peaking at an average of 52% in the first spring semester (Table 2A). Honolulu CC also showed a relatively high average initial fall enrollment rate, at 39%, peaking at 46% in the second fall semester. Average Initial fall enrollment rates for Kaua>i, Leeward, Maui and Windward CC measured between 19% and 27%, while Hawai>i CC had the lowest average initial fall enrollment rate at 2%.! AA transfers begin completing at UH Mānoa in significant numbers by the end of the fall semester of the second year of enrollment (Table 3 & Figure 5). Most students complete by the end of the fourth year of enrollment. For the Spring 1997 AA graduate cohort, cumulative completions had reached 177 by the end of the seventh year of enrollment. This figure represents 69% of those members of the cohort that had transferred at some point to UH Mānoa (Figure 7), and 29% of the total cohort of AA graduates (Figure 8). The results for the Spring 1998 cohort appear to be somewhat higher.! Completion results varied greatly by UHCC campus. Maui CC posted the highest cumulative completion rate for the Spring 1997 cohort, at 93% (Table 3). Kapi>olani CC was next at 79%, followed by Honolulu (77%), Windward (63%), Leeward (60%), Kaua>i (53%) and Hawai>i (50%). Enrollment and Completion of UH Mānoa First-Time Students! Enrollment of first-time students at UH Mānoa follows a somewhat different pattern than enrollment of AA transfers, because the number of students enrolled is at a maximum in the first semester of enrollment (when the cohort is defined). Subsequent enrollment declines steadily over time (Table 6 & Figure 9). The cohorts appear to undergo significant attrition in the first few semesters of enrollment, especially the first year. By the end of the spring semester of the seventh year of enrollment, 6% of the Fall 1995 cohort were still enrolled; by the end of the ninth year less than 3% remained (Table 6A).! By the end of the seventh year of enrollment, 55% of the Fall 1995 cohort of UH Mānoa first-time students had completed (Table 7A & Figure 10). The percentage had increased to 59% by the end of the ninth year. Results for the Fall 1996 cohort were slightly higher. Continued tracking may raise the final percentages somewhat, but cumulative completions appear to approach 60% as a limit.! If we exclude those first-time freshmen from the Fall 1995 and Fall 1996 cohorts who dropped-out during the first year of enrollment and restrict the denominator to those first-time freshmen who were still enrolled as of the second fall semester, then the completion rates for UH Mānoa first-time freshmen are comparable to those for the AA transfer students. Of the 1,414 first-time freshmen for the Fall 1995 cohort still enrolled as of Fall 1996, 70% had completed by the end of the seventh year of enrollment, and 75% had completed by the end of the ninth year. The results for the Fall 1996 cohort are somewhat higher. Adjusting for first-year attrition in this way may provide a better basis for comparison in that the AA graduate cohorts do not include students who failed to complete study at the Associate level.

5 Performance Measures! By the end of their first full year of enrollment at UH Mānoa, AA transfer students had accumulated an average of 100 credit hours: approximately 28 credit hours earned and another 72 hours in transfer credits (Table 4). In contrast, by the end of their third year, UH Mānoa first-time freshmen had accumulated an average of 85 credit hours, the vast majority of them earned credits (Table 8A). (As a benchmark, a full-time undergraduate should have earned at least 72 credit hours by the end of the third year of study.)! On average, AA transfers attempted 29.3 credit hours in their first year of enrollment at UH Mānoa and earned 27.8, a credit earned ratio of 95% (Table 4). In contrast, first-time freshmen at UH Mānoa on average attempted 28.0 credit hours in their first year and earned 26.2, a credit earned ratio of 93% (Table 8). However, first-time freshmen who survived to the end of the third year of enrollment had an average credit earned ratio of 96% (Table 8A).! The average GPR of AA transfers, as measured at the end of the first year of enrollment at UH Mānoa, was In comparison, the GPR of first-time freshmen at UH Mānoa at the end of their first year of study was First-time freshmen who survived to the end of the third year of enrollment had an average GPR of 2.96! In the spring semester of their first year of enrollment at UH Mānoa, AA transfer students carried an average credit load of 12.0 hours. In contrast, UH Mānoa firsttime freshmen carried an average credit load of 14.2 hours. In the spring semester of their third year of enrollment, the credit load for UH Mānoa first-time freshmen had declined somewhat, to an average of 13.6 hours.! As measured at the end of their first semester of enrollment, an average of 92% of the AA transfer students had good academic standing (Table 5). In contrast, only 85% of the UH Mānoa first-time freshmen had good academic standing after one full year of study. The percentage of UH Mānoa first-time freshmen having good academic standing averaged 94% at the end of the third year of enrollment. Summary and Conclusion Approximately 42% of those students receiving an Associate in Arts degree from a UH Community College eventually transfer to UH Mānoa. Of those who transfer, about 67% graduate by the end of the sixth year of enrollment. For the entire Spring 1997 and Spring 1998 cohorts of AA graduates, including both those who transferred to UH Mānoa and those who did not, the six-year completion rates averaged 28%. Transfer and completion rates varied widely by UHCC campus of origin. The average transfer rates for the Spring 1997 and Spring 1998 cohorts by campus were: Hawai>i (8%), Honolulu (63%), Kapi>olani (70%), Kaua>i (42%), Leeward (35%), Maui (42%) and Windward (42%). The average six-year completion rates by campus were: Hawai>i (42%), Honolulu (76%), Kapi>olani (77%), Kaua>i (48%), Leeward (62%), Maui (81%) and Windward (58%).

6 The performance of AA transfers was compared to that of UH Mānoa first-time freshmen as measured at two points in time: at the end of the first year of study and at the end of the third year. UH Mānoa first-time freshmen undergo substantial attrition in the first year, which negatively affects both the graduation rates and the performance indicators. Examining the performance data for the first-time freshmen as of the end of their third year of study adjusts for this attrition. Furthermore, since the AA transfers had already completed a program of study prior to transfer, they may be more comparable to UH Mānoa third year students. In general, students who transfer to UH Mānoa having first earned an Associate in Arts degree at one of the UH Community Colleges perform as well or better than students who enroll as first-time freshmen at UH Mānoa. Performance measurements for the UH Mānoa first-time freshmen who survived to the end of their third year of enrollment were comparable to the measurements for the AA transfer students. However, AA transfer graduates performed better during their first year of study than did first-time freshmen during their first year of enrollment. On average, UH Mānoa first-time freshmen carry a higher credit load than do AA transfers. This study raises many issues that might be addressed by further research, especially whether or not there is any meaningful difference in the success of students who transfer to UH Mānoa without having first earned an associate credential as opposed to those who transfer with the associate degree. Also, a comparative study of students who have earned the AS degree versus the AA degree could prove interesting. Finally, a system-wide study that would include transfers to UH Hilo and UH-West O>ahu, in addition to UH Mānoa, seems warranted.
