UC Denver was not prepared to serve the unique needs of CCD transfer students upon transfer. Only 4% of CCD students who transferred earned a 4 year degree UC Denver was not prepared to invest in this effort even though it was committed to serve ethnically diverse student populations. CCD = 49% minority student pop. UC Denver = 23% minority student pop.
