IHE Calls it ‘Common Sense’
An article recently published in Inside Higher Ed makes the case for “reverse transfer” of credits to achieve a number of efficiencies in the American higher education system, including:
- crediting students with the associate’s degree they have earned despite the transfer from community college to four-year institution;
- crediting community colleges with the completion statistics they deserve for students who transfer before degree completion; and
- emphasizing the value of an associate’s degree credential.
