The cohort is limited because it includes onlystudents who entered Bakersfield College in the fall term as firsttime, full-time students seeking a degree, certificate or to transfer.Students included in the 2008 SRTK Cohort were tracked from Fall2008 through Spring 2011 to determine their academic outcomesduring the time period.A student is included in the Completion Rate if they attained acertificate or degree or became ‘transfer-prepared’ within the threeyear period. Transfer-prepared is defined as having completed 60transferable units with a GPA of 2.0 or better.A student is included in the Transfer Rate if, within the threeyear tracking period, they transferred to another postsecondaryinstitution prior to receiving a certificate or degree or becoming‘transfer-prepared.’The table below compares Bakersfield College’s Completion andTransfer Rates to the statewide community college average.
