identities across the Africandiaspora. Through this lens, we hope to highlight the impact that cultural background may haveon the transfer experience. The theoretical framework guiding this study is drawn from the STEM Transfer model andposits that the persistence of Black transfer students in engineering is a longitudinal processinfluenced by the intersection of both individual and institutional factors. We draw from theSTEM transfer model, noting that the transfer process commences during a student’s communitycollege education and continues through his/her transfer and enrollment in an engineeringprogram at a four-year institution. The following factors contribute to our conceptualization ofthis process: pre-college background, community
