Funded by a joint grant from the National Science Foundation, each with their ownbudget, the collaborators set out to develop a program that would interest and supportcommunity college students in engineering, ease their transition to a large university, andcontinue to support them after the transfer, especially for the first year. The program also wasdesigned to especially encourage and support women and underrepresented minority students.The program is called METS: Maricopa Engineering Transition Scholars.

Yet, on the upside, similar percentages of students indicated they were receptive to financial guidance.5Interestingly, 73% of the surveyed students agreed that they needed to study more than they didlast year. The study suggests that sophomores should not be assumed to have “successfullytransitioned” to college: as a cohort and as individuals they have distinctive needs andexperiences.3 In general, students also realized that they needed to seek tutoring and completetheir education programs. However, only 56% of the students in two-year institutions planned totransfer to another institution or were undecided. In particular the sophomores
