APPENDIX X
Student’s Right-to-Know
In compliance with the federal Student-Right-to-Know and Campus
Security Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-542) it is the policy of the
Ventura County Community College District and Ventura College
to make available its completion and transfer rates to all current
and prospective students.
Beginning in Fall 2005, a group of all certificate-, degree-, and
transfer-seeking first-time, full-time students were tracked over a
three-year period. (Approximately 2.6% of all community college
students statewide were included in the study.) The completion
and transfer rates are listed below, along with a brief description
of how these rates are defined. These rates do not represent the
success rates of the entire student population at Ventura College,
nor do they account for student outcomes occurring after this
three-year tracking period. The rates below exclude part-time
students; continuing students; and students attending Ventura
College to obtain or upgrade job skills, improve basic skills, or
maintain licenses; or those working toward high school credits
or pursuing lifelong learning; etc. The rates below do not include
any students who took longer than three years to complete their
academic goal.
SRTK is a “cohort” study; that is, a group of students who are
first-time freshmen, who are enrolled full-time in a fall term, and
are degree-seeking. Their outcomes are measured over a period of
time. The outcomes that the two SRTK rates measure are Completing
(total number of students in the cohort who earn either a degree, a
certificate, or who successfully completed a two-year-equivalent
transfer-preparatory program) and Transfer (the total number of
cohort non-completers who were identified as having enrolled in
another institution). The tracking period of the cohorts is three(3)
years, at which time the SRTK rates are calculated and made public.
