The Road to Creativity: A Phenomenological Study of Faculty and Administrators’ Experiences of Wyoming Community College Transfer in the Fine and Performing Arts
2025
Overview
Students in the fine and performing arts who begin their studies at community colleges often achieve the strongest educational and career outcomes when they are able to complete a bachelor’s degree. In Wyoming, this requires transferring from one of the state’s community colleges to the University of Wyoming or another institution of higher education that offers bachelor’s degrees. While research on rural transfer pathways is growing, limited scholarly attention has been given to transfer experiences specifically within the fine and performing arts. This phenomenological study examined the perspectives of faculty and administrators at Wyoming community colleges and the University of Wyoming who support student transfer in the fine and performing arts. The central research question guiding the inquiry was: What is your experience with the transfer process from Wyoming community colleges to the University of Wyoming in the fine and performing arts?Findings revealed themes related to communication and capacity challenges, the importance of high-quality advising, structural barriers, faculty ownership of transfer processes, and student readiness. Recommendations include building institutional capacity for transfer support, establishing shared accountability mechanisms, creating multiple program entry points to accommodate varied student preparation, and exploring the role of community college bachelor’s degrees in addressing transfer barriers.
