Create an environment to maximize student success
- Our institutions can drive transfer student degree completion by creating a campus culture that serves transfer students and supports student success behaviors.

Institute a statewide reverse transfer system
- All students should receive credit where credit is due. Through reverse transfer, students can combine credits earned at both the two- and four-year institution to meet associate degree requirements. As a result of reverse transfer policies and practices, students hold credentials that accurately reflect their educational attainment and states benefit from a more competitive workforce.

Ensure students have the information and resources they need to succeed
- The Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI) and MyCreditsTransfer tool provide transfer students with important information and resources to foster seamless transfer pathways and should be adequately funded to ensure continued maintenance and expansion. While the IAI and MyCreditsTransfer tools are an important resource in the transfer student tool kit, these systems alone will not ensure a seamless pathway for all students. By creating partnerships between 2- and 4-year institutions we tear down silos and create easily navigable bridges for our transfer students.
