Taken together, the findings suggest that offering the program is likely neutral to mildly beneficial and at least not harmful to high school seniors. Yet because the counterfactual circumstance typically includes a college-preparatory course of some kind that is displaced in favor of the treatment, it is important for policymakers and educators implementing transition courses to carefully consider the unintended consequences of removing students from alternative courses.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalcollege preparation programseducation, higher--government policystudent financial aideducation, higher--New YorkReporthttps://ccrc.tc.columbia.edu/media/k2/attachments/can-high-school-transition-courses-help-students-avoid-remediation.pdf
