41% of students go to community colleges. 83% of them intend to transfer to 4-year colleges and get a degree. However, "only 13% of community college students actually go on to earn degrees from four-year institutions within eight years"
https://www.npr.org/2024/08/21/nx-s1-4930527/community-college-affordable-bachelors-degree
The number rose to 16% this year, but "only 9% of Black & 13% of Hispanic students transferred from community college and earned their bachelor’s degrees within 6 years"
