Perceived barriers to articulation: institutional characteristics.
It has been generally acknowledged that a number of obstacles, or barriers, exist in the articulation process. Based on literature review, student characteristics as well as institutional characteristics may act as barriers. This paper focuses on institutional characteristics. The changed mission of the community college and a lack of standardization of curricula between two-year and four-year institutions of higher education have been identified as barriers to articulation. Suggested reforms are described.
