Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The movement of students between postsecondary institutions is becoming increasingly common and has created a need for greater emphasis on postsecondary education (PSE) pathways. This report outlines the available data on postsecondary student mobility within Ontario, with a focus on mobility between Ontario's colleges and universities. For comparison, summary data from several other jurisdictions are also presented. Key findings include the following: (1) Seventeen per cent of college students have previous university experience (nine per cent have a university degree); (2) Of the university faculties, graduates from the social sciences, humanities and business areas tend to enrol in college programs in the greatest proportions; (3) Almost one-quarter of college applicants have identified preparation for university as a major reason for applying to college; (4) The number of college students/graduates seeking access to Ontario university programs has more than doubled in the last eight years; (5) While university applicants with college education represented almost 12 per cent of all Canadian applicants to universities, only six per cent actually enrolled; (6) In Ontario, only nine per cent of college graduates pursue a university education; seven per cent pursue a degree at an Ontario university; and (7) Many other jurisdictions in Canada and the U.S. have higher transfer rates. In British Columbia, for example, 19 per cent of former students of the colleges and institutes pursue a university education. The percentage of college graduates who proceed to enrol in an Ontario university degree program is low in comparison to several other provinces and U.S. states. Relative to the other jurisdictions surveyed, Ontario has one of the worst transfer rates. The evidence of consistently growing demand from college students and graduates and Ontario's relatively low transfer rate supports the need for new directions in this critical area. Appended are: (1) Numbers of Ontario university applicants and registrants by year; (2) Number of 2006-07 surveyed graduates in further education by institution; (3) Number of surveyed graduates attending university full time; and (5) Number of surveyed graduates attending university part time. (Contains 14 tables and 11 figures.).

Book excerpt: Two professors look at the mystique around universities and the consequences of “credentialism.” For decades, we have promoted the idea that a university degree is a passport to future career success. Ken Coates and Bill Morrison argue that the over-promotion of higher education and university degrees is actually undermining the lives of young people, saddling them with enormous debts, and costing governments huge amounts of money. As the young flock to universities in ever-increasing numbers, fewer of them than ever find the elusive “good jobs” that they are pursuing. In fact, many of those jobs no longer exist. We are in the midst of a youth employment crisis that is global in proportion, and we are facing serious misunderstandings about the unfolding career prospects for young adults entering a world of rapid technological change. Ken Coates and Bill Morrison explore the impacts of universities turning out graduates with the wrong skills, and the consequences of vanishing job opportunities.

Download or read book A Case Study Analysis of Ontario CAAT Graduates who Transfer to a University written by Henry Gary Decock and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ontario Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology were established to educate the Grade 12 graduate who was not destined for university, in an educational sector meant to be separate from universities. Even though the original mandate and focus of Ontario CAATs has been on the employment of their graduates, students have been moving from colleges to universities since inception. However, very little is known about transfer and the characteristics of the transfer student in the province of Ontario. As well, there is limited empirical evidence regarding the extent of success for college transfer students at the universities.The purpose of this study was to describe and analyze the demographic and academic characteristics of college-to-university students and to provide information on their performance at university. Using an exploratory case study of Seneca College graduates, the thesis profiles the typical transfer student, documents their performance and persistence at university, and compares them to other college graduates. A questionnaire was developed and mailed to all students who had graduated from Seneca College and who had subsequently enrolled at a university as determined by their responses to the Graduate Satisfaction Survey (GSS) from 1998-99 to 2002-03. The returned questionnaires were linked with the corresponding responses to the GSS and the respondents' records on the college's Administration and Registration Information Exchange System (ARIES). Together the information gathered included data regarding age, gender, language, citizenship, aspirations, and socio-economic status of the transfer student; the college program from which they graduated and the university program into which they enrolled; and, their success at university.The evidence suggests that an increasing number of younger students entered Seneca College directly from high school with a conscious design to use their program and the school itself as a vehicle to enter university. Not all the programs were developed to achieve that end, nor were the pathways explicitly planned; however, the students appeared to understand the college to be a viable route to realize their goal of attending university and entered Seneca College for this purpose, expecting it to provide that opportunity. The research also shows that the route to university could only have been through the college for a large majority of these transfer students because they would not have met the university entrance requirements based on their pre-college credentials. Finally, the university-through-college process appears to be providing access to higher education and university for families with limited post-secondary experience and who come from the middle to lower socio-economic strata. Based on these results and the process for ascertaining the data, a consistent approach to measuring transfer is proposed along with curriculum and program recommendations for increasing transfer provincially.
