's education and advanced education ministries and public postsecondary institutions, is tracking student success by reporting on student transition rates to post-secondary education, student mobility among postsecondary institutions, and postsecondary completion and retention rates.  \nSTP is managed by a steering committee with representation from the two education ministries, public institutions and the B.C. Council on Admissions and Transfer (BCCAT) .  \nResearch Results Legend  \nThe following symbols used throughout this newsletter indicate the significance of each of the research findings.  \n􀀻 Recurring Consistent Trend  \n􀂋 Significant Change  \n􀁽 Context or Information  \nExecutive Summary About this Research  \nThis report provides highlights of the latest research from the Student Transitions Project (STP), with a focus on the first transitions of B.C. grade 12 graduates2 into B.C. public post-secondary education.  \nThe study was conducted by the Student Transitions Project (STP), a collaborative research partnership involving B.C.’s education and advanced education ministries and post-secondary institutions.  \nThis report presents a series of research questions and answers, beginning here with brief responses to each question, followed by amore detailed explanation and visual analysis in the Research Results section of the report, beginning on page 10.  \nQuick Facts  \nPart 1 : Student Transitions into Post-Secondary Education 􀂋 What are the transition rates of B.C. high school graduates into  \nB.C. public post-secondary education? The immediate entry transition rate of 2020/2021 grade 12 graduates is currently 48.7% . This rate is continuing to decline since the highest rate of 54.3% was attained in 2008/09 . [Page 11]  \n􀀻 What does the student transitions matrix reveal about student transitions of different graduation cohorts? The immediate entry, delayed entry, no transition and cumulative transition rates for grade 12 graduation cohorts from each of the last ten years are provided in STP’s transition matrix. Due to missing Personal Education Numbers (PENs) on student records at Langara, the relatively low (48 .7%) immediate entry transition rate for the 2020/2021 grade 12 graduation cohort under-reports student transitions and is estimated to be closer to 50.9% . [Page 12]  \n􀀻 Do immediate and delayed entry students enrol indifferent institution types? Are academic qualifications a factor? Immediate entry students were equally as likely to enrol in B.C.
