Abstract

This study is motivated by a practical question faced by a computer science curriculum committee at a major research university. And that question is, are students who transfer credits for the first two courses into the computer science program at a disadvantage in their likelihood for success in the third course compared to students who took all three courses locally at the university? A retrospective longitudinal study using data from 2012 to 2016 revealed that transfer students succeeded in the third course in just about the same way as native students. The study also suggests interesting ideas for future exploration and avenues for further inquiries on broader topics.
