National Transfer Student Week

 

Transfer Student Week 2024

WHAT IS NATIONAL TRANSFER STUDENT WEEK?

USF is proud to organize National Transfer Student Week (NTSW) to celebrate transfer students and the professionals who support them on their journeys. Today's students are transferring more than ever before. As transfer champions, it's vitally important that we build awareness of common transfer barriers and the diverse student needs within our transfer populations. Although the transition between institutions is inherently complex, we believe that transfer is a good and valuable pathway to bachelor's degree completion.
