On Campus Housing
Living on campus in a Residence Hall helps you meet other students and form a 富二代视频 here on campus.
Each Residence Hall is unique, so we suggest a little research to find your best fit.

Preparing for Registration
You will register for your fall semester courses during a meeting with an Academic Counselor. You can schedule your registration appointment on any weekday starting early May. However, earlier is best for maximum class availability.
Please contact Academic Counseling to schedule your appointment. Be sure you indicate you are a transfer student for Fall in your voicemail or email, and our staff will contact you to schedule a registration appointment.
During the appointment, your academic counselor will:
- Inquire about your goals and interests.
- Review specific requirements for your degree program.
- Review requirements for which you may have already earned credit (if applicable)
- Assist you with class registration for the fall semester.
Sign up for your Orientation session:
Transfer Orientation is August 28 from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. All incoming transfer students are required to attend one orientation date. We have additional options for students who are military veterans and for students for whom the group session is not preferred.
We assume our new transfer students have already successfully navigated another institution of higher learning, so our transfer program is more focused than our program for our first-year students. Still, we believe it is valuable because it gives new students the opportunity to meet other new students and get any last-minute questions answered. We look forward to seeing our newest transfer students in August!
The Transfer Orientation Program occurs on 28 from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. All incoming transfer students are required to attend orientation.
