In Washington, 16,318 students that completed their transfer degree in 2016 or 2017 did not enroll in a WA public four-year in the state. This is over half (55%) of academic transfer degree recipients.


Although there were slight disparities (for example, a slightly higher percentage of male students that transfer compared to females), this appears to be an issue that occurs at a relatively similar rate across gender, race, and economic level.
