Question

which of the following is the reason most people give for transferring from a two-year school to a four-year school? a. the ability to pursue a higher degree b. a lot more to do at a four-year school c. college sports d. less expensive

Explanation:

To determine the most common reason for transferring from a two - year school to a four - year school, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Two - year schools (like community colleges) often offer associate degrees, and to pursue a bachelor's degree (and potentially higher degrees like master's or doctorates) one needs to transfer to a four - year institution. This is a very practical and common academic - driven reason.
• Option B: While four - year schools may have more activities, this is not the primary reason for most students to transfer as the main goal is usually academic advancement.
• Option C: College sports are not a primary reason for the majority of students to transfer from a two - year to a four - year school.
• Option D: Two - year schools are generally less expensive than four - year schools, so this option is incorrect as a reason to transfer to a four - year school (since four - year schools are typically more expensive).

Answer:

A. The ability to pursue a higher degree
