Transfer students often face significant challenges when attempting to transfer their credits from one institution to another. The University of Texas (UT) System and MDRC developed and field-tested this toolkit to encourage a higher-education system that is more transfer-ready by facilitating the transfer process and including transfer students as a core part of the system's mission. The activities within this toolkit were used to build and engage cross-functional teams at three universities (including faculty members, advisers, department chairs, enrollment staff members, and academic administrators) to identify gaps and opportunities for their institutions to become more transfer-ready. The administrators leading efforts at their respective universities were members of the core research team and met regularly with the UT System Office. As a result of this initiative, each university designed and launched an evidence-driven solution to improve the transfer-readiness of their own institution's policies, procedures, and practices. In addition, the UT System Office identified transfer improvement strategies it could take, or advocate for, at the state level to be responsive to the needs of individual institutions and their students. This toolkit is for administrators, faculty members, and other staff members who want to: (1) Develop plans to facilitate transfers between institutions with buy-in from key stakeholders; (2) Improve the efficiency of transfer-credit evaluation and enrollment procedures; (3) Build, strengthen, or expand partnerships with the institutions that students transfer to or from; and (4) Improve an institution's transfer-readiness culture.
