These agreements often aim both to increase transfer rates and baccalaureate degree completion  \nand to decrease time to degree. Studies exploring the efficacy of articulation agreements find that, despite being successful at decreasing the number of excess credits students earned at graduation and at increasing baccalaureate degree completion, these policies often increase time to degree. While there is considerable research on articulation agreements, few studies have examined the differential impact of these policies on students of Color who, prior literature has shown, experience barriers to realizing their baccalaureate degree aspirations. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the impact of North Carolina’s statewide articulation agreement varied by a student’s racial/ethnic identity when examining two-year post-transfer baccalaureate degree completion, time-to-degree completion, and excess credit accumulation.

Losestudios que exploran la efectividad de los acuerdos de enlace han encontrado que, aunque logran reducir el exceso de créditos obtenidos al graduarse y aumentar la finalización de laslicenciaturas, estas políticas a menudo aumentan el tiempo de graduación.
