UAF celebrating National Transfer Week

UAF’s Office of Admissions and the Transfer Credit team are delighted to take part in the national celebration of transfer students.

On Tuesday, Oct. 22, the UAF Transfer Credit team is hosting a virtual session for UAF faculty and staff members. We'll be sharing insights about how best to support transfer students during their transition to UAF. We'll also cover UAF transfer policies and practices, as well as the roles that staff, faculty, deans and committees have in the transfer credit process. This session is a part of National Transfer Week.

Transfer Week is a country-wide initiative led by the National Institute for the Study of Transfer Students to celebrate the transfer students who enrich campuses across the country with their experiences and knowledge as non-traditional students. We're excited to celebrate UAF's transfer students!

Transfer Credit is also hosting a series of in-person and online events for UAF transfer students. We’re getting current transfer students together to chat over free coffee and donuts, then later in the week will be giving away UAF swag while students enjoy lemonade and cookies. More information is available at www.uaf.edu/transferweek.
