中文摘要

学生的大学选择可能影响其获得学位的机会,但许多学生缺乏支持,难以应对不透明的大学申请和录取过程。本文评估基于透明学业标准保证四年制大学录取是否影响了转学入学选择和毕业率。保证录取使高GPA社区学院毕业生转入高选择性大学的转学率提高了30%。高选择性大学的毕业率提高,学生债务减少。历史上转学率较低的学生获益最大。透明的大学录取标准能够以低成本甚至零成本增加进入选择性大学的机会。

Abstract

<h3>Abstract</h3> Students’ college choices can affect their chances of earning a degree, but many lack the support to navigate the opaque college application and admissions process. This paper evaluates whether guaranteeing admissions to four-year colleges based on transparent academic standards affected transfer enrollment choices and graduation rates. Guaranteed admissions increased high-GPA community college graduates’ transfer rates to highly selective colleges by 30 percent. Graduation rates from highly selective colleges increased and student debt decreased. Gains were largest for students with historically lower transfer rates. Transparent college admissions standards can increase access to selective colleges at low to no cost.
