641C (2,3,4,6): All Cohort Students Who Attained the Vision Goal Completion Definition or Who Transferred to a Four-Year Institution
EITHER among students in the cohort, the unduplicated count of students who earned one or more of the following: Chancellor's Office approved certificate, associate degree, and/or CCC baccalaureate degree, and had an enrollment in the selected year in the district that they earned the award within 2, 3, 4, or 6 years. OR among students in the cohort who earned 12 or more units at any time and at any college and who exited the community college system in the selected year, the number of cohort students who enrolled in any four-year postsecondary institution in the subsequent year or 4 years after for 3 year cohort, 5 years after for 4 year cohort and 7 years after for 6 year cohort
Value Type
Unduplicated count of students
Data Source(s)
Chancellor's Office Management Information System
The Vision for Success Goal definition of completion does not align to the Student Centered Funding Formula Definition of Completion for two reasons:
Students who have earned multiple Chancellor's Office Approved Certificates or degrees are counted once and deduplicated
Does not include local awards
"M" (Certificate requiring 8 to fewer than 16 semester units and "N" (Certificate requiring 16 to fewer than 30 semester units) were added in summer 2019
For transfer, information displayed will continue to be updated for this metric as students are found to meet the criteria in the metric definition. Since the timeframe for data collection to construct this metric within this cohort view is still open, the data displayed for these metrics will continue to be updated.
The 4-Yr transfer metric is aligned to the original SCFF definition. However, it will not align to the 2021-22 SCFF definition where the 12 or more units have to be earned in the district in the selected year prior to transfer
For transfer, only students with valid social security numbers can be tracked
For transfer, all colleges where a student is enrolled in the selected year prior to transfer will receive credit for that transfer
