The purpose of this dissertation in practice is to determine how the University of Louisville's College of Business can better support transfer students as they enter the college. Current practices do not best support this transition phase for students which can lead to academic struggles. Considering the Fall 2020 population consisted of 416 students who had transferred from another university, this is a significant population of students for the College of Business. Outside of where the students are coming from and the courses they will transfer, no data on the students' needs or expectations are collected upon entering the school. To implement better practices, College of Business transfer students were asked to participate in this research study. Additionally, the College of Business advising team, administration, and the orientation team were included to provide insight in current practices with transfer students and knowledge of the population. To gather information for this research and from participants, a mixed methods approach was taken. Quantitative data was collected using student records such as grade point averages and predicted levels of support needed, which indicates student success in a course. A survey using a Likert scale was also used as the first touch point with transfer student participants. This survey asked questions surrounding the student's previous college experiences, interactions with the advising team, experience with transfer student orientation, and how prepared they felt before and after their first semester. Qualitative data was collected by means of interviews with all participant groups with an additional focus group for the advising team. The participants were interviewed using Microsoft Teams with the virtual video chat feature. This method will also be used for the focus group. This research led to the suggestion of creating a transfer student specific orientation, the implementation of new advising practices for transfer students, and a welcome week of events specific to College of Business students.
