Transfer advisory urges clearer college credit rules
An advisory group to Nebraska's Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education urges improved student counseling and candor about which credits will transfer. The report notes 4000 Nebraskan transfer students face delays or retakes due to non accepted courses, wasting time and money. It cites transfer rates at UNL UNO and state colleges, and records a 1974 75 jump to 3768 transfer students. Hastings College board member Hal Lainson resigns from the commission. Nebraska received 395312 in federal student aid incentive funds and a November 18 progress report on adult and vocational education designation is planned.
