To address local workforce needs and expand access to affordable bachelor’s degrees, some states allow community colleges to offer bachelor’s degree programs. Despite concerns that community college baccalaureate (CCB) programs will duplicate efforts and cut into the market share of nearby 4-year institutions, extant literature has yet to examine the impact of CCB adoption on bachelor’s degree program enrollment and bachelor’s degree production at 4-year institutions. Using program-level data, our findings show that local CCB degree programs have a negative effect on overall bachelor’s degree enrollment and bachelor’s degree production at 4-year institutions, but this effect is concentrated primarily within for-profit 4-year institutions. This study represents the first comprehensive evaluation of the impact of CCB degree programs on neighboring 4-year institutions.

竞争学士学位:社区大学是否正在削减四年制院校的市场份额?

为了满足当地劳动力的需求并扩大获得负担得起的学士学位的机会,一些州允许社区大学提供学士学位课程。尽管担心社区大学学士学位(CCB)计划会重复努力并削减附近4年制大学的市场份额,但现有文献尚未研究CCB的采用对4年制学士学位课程注册和学士学位课程产生的影响机构。使用课程级别的数据,我们的发现表明,本地CCB学位课程对4年制院校的整体学士学位招生和学士学位产生负面影响,但这种影响主要集中在营利性4年制院校中。
