A Place for Non-traditional Transfer Students

Hosted by the International Studies Program
The International Studies Program is happy to have transfer students from different walks of life. In our National Transfer Student Week Event, we are hosting transfer students whose education at UCSD is just a small part of their busy life. We know that our non-traditional transfer students face challenges that most other students don't, and we want to provide a safe space to meet, share personal stories, and voice frustrations that are unique to non-traditional transfers. We think that these students epitomize our program through their commitments off-campus and through their hard work on campus, and want to hear from them directly. If you are a transfer student at UCSD and consider yourself non-traditional, we look forward to having you at our event!
