City College of San Francisco Transfer Data. Institutional Development, Research and Planning Report.
Daoud, Annette
Fall 1993 transfer data are provided for the City College of San Francisco (CCSF), highlighting the number of students transferring to the University of California (UC) and California State University (CSU). The first section of the report provides statewide transfer data for the community colleges with the highest transfer rates overall to UC and CSU. The second section explains two different ways of calculating transfer rates, one defined by the UCLA Transfer Assembly and the other by Berman-Weiler Associates (BWA). Finally, information is presented on the ethnicity of CCSF students who transfer to the UC and CSU systems. Study highlights include the following: (1) CCSF is among the top 10 California community colleges in terms of combined transfers to the CSU and UC systems, ranking eighth; (2) CCSF ranks third in the state, in terms of students transferring to the CSU system in 1992-93; (3) CCSF has a 1994 transfer rate of 26.35% according to the Transfer Assembly, which reports a transfer rate for all California community colleges of 19% and a national transfer rate of 22%; (4) according to the BWA transfer rate formula, CCSF has a transfer rate of 18.7% for the 1989-90 school year, compared with a national average for all large community colleges of 15%; (5) although overall transfer numbers for CCSF are high, the fall 1993 transfer rates of African Americans (1.1%), Chicanos (3.2%), and Latino students (4.3%) transferring to the UC system are low; and (6) Asian students comprise 42.5% of all CCSF transfers to the UC and CSU systems combined in fall 1992.
