What is National Transfer Student Week (NTSW)?
At UC San Diego, we love our Triton Transfers! Our transfer students make up about 33% of the undergraduate population and are a valued part of our campus community. We want to celebrate and support the diversity of the transfer student experience. We hope that you join in our upcoming National Transfer Student Week (NTSW) celebrations!
-The National Institute for the Study of Transfer Students organizes NTSW annually on every third week of October to celebrate transfer students and those that support them through their academic journey (www.nists.org/national-transfer-student-week).
