In 2024, several Coalition for College member institutions were selected for an American Talent Initiative grant aimed to fund efforts to support limited-income students. In this session, hear from three Coalition members whose projects focus on improving transfer pathways, specifically: Drexel University, for formalizing a direct admission transfer program with the Community College of Philadelphia; Stony Brook University, for implementing a dual admission program with Suffolk County Community College; and Stevens Institute of Technology for Creating the Stevens Transfer Student Success Initiative for STEM-focused community college transfers.

Ithaka S+R’s Martin Kurzweil will moderate this session at the Coalition for College Annual Meeting & Conference in Cleveland, OH. The panel will take place August 8, 2025 from 10:45 AM to 11:00 AM. Register and learn more about the conference here.
