Abstract: Assembly Bill 705 (AB705) is one of the most ambitious reforms in California higher education to date, as it directs all community colleges in the state to maximize the number of students completing transfer-level math and English courses in one year's time. This report describes outcomes in the Los Angeles Community College District after Fall 2019 -- the first semester of full AB705 implementation -- and the only "pre-COVID" semester. The authors examine enrollment and completion of transfer-level courses among first-time-in-college (FTIC) students entering in Fall 2017, Fall 2018, and Fall 2019, finding increased access and completion of transfer-level math and English courses, but significant variation by race/ethnicity. The report highlights seven primary findings and concludes with a discussion of implications and future research. [This research was conducted in a research-practitioner partnership between the University of Southern California and the Los Angeles Community College District.]
