New England Conference for Student Success
"Transition to college is challenging for many students. New Student Orientations, First-Year Seminars,
Living-Learning Communities and other initiatives are designed to support students during this time but
sometimes transfer students are left out of the process. This session will review findings from a recent
mixed-methods study designed to better understand how transfer students perceived their academic
transition into a new institution. Intended audience: those with a novice to intermediate understanding of
the transfer student experience. Takeaways: ideas and resources to create programming on other
campuses."

"Over the past decade, Bunker Hill Community College (BHCC) has earned a national reputation for its
accomplishments in creating successful learning environments for its students. The College’s Learning
Communities are the cornerstone of a comprehensive student success agenda that has resulted in a
28% increase since 2003 in fall-to-fall retention, a key indicator of progress toward degree completion.
Most notable is the college-wide increase in retention for students of color, who represent nearly 60% of
BHCC’s enrollment. This session explores two Learning Communities that are providing a rich learning
experience for BHCC’s diverse population."
