Research Highlights from the Student Transitions Project [June 2024]
Student Transitions Project
This STP Highlights newsletter focuses on the first transitions of B.C. grade 12 graduates into B.C. public post-secondary education, in addition to total postsecondary enrolment trends in the B.C. public postsecondary system. The Student Transitions Project (STP) has collected more than twenty years of data and is currently assembling a more detailed report of research findings spanning the last two decades. In the meantime, this short newsletter provides continuity with previous STP publications released in June of each year. Research questions addressed in this newsletter: (1) What proportion of B.C. grade 12 graduates enrol in BC. public post-secondary education? What are the trends? (2) What does the student transitions matrix reveal about student transitions of different graduation cohorts? (3) Do immediate-entry students enrol full-time or part-time? What are the trends? (4) What are the post-secondary enrolment trends in the B.C. public post-secondary system? (5) What proportion of all undergraduate students enrol full-time versus part-time in credit-based activity in the B.C. public post-secondary system? What are the trends? (6) What are the differences in student transition rates by student demographic characteristics? and (7) What are the trends in student transitions by region, school type and B.C. school district?
