Retention, Graduation and Transfer Rates at Maryland Community Colleges
Maryland Higher Education Commission
Ten-year trends in the retention, transfer, and graduation of first-time, full-time Maryland public community college students are presented in this report. Tables track students two, three, and four years after matriculation and are broken down by gender and ethnic categories. When considering this data, it must be remembered that retention, transfer, and graduation rates provide important, but narrowly defined, measures of success at community colleges. In recent years, community colleges have expanded their missions, enrolling increasing numbers of students with goals other than earning credentials or transferring.
