As a transfer student, you typically have different concerns and needs than first-year students out of high school. The Transfer Workshop Series is designed specifically for transfer students to learn about a variety of university services and opportunities, and to connect with other transfer students. See below for the schedule of these free workshops, taking place throughout Fall and Spring semesters. All workshops will have an in-person option where you can meet other transfer students and many are also streamed simultaneously via Zoom, and then saved on our YouTube channel.
Attendance at these events counts toward Crimson Transfer Honor Society (CTHS) eligibility and Transfer Scholars Program (TSP) requirements. For the purposes of CTHS and TSP membership, attendance is verified via completion of the survey provided at the end of the workshop. Students watching workshops on our YouTube channel can still complete the survey to meet CTHS and TSP attendance requirements.
If you have questions about these events or attendance verification, please email transferstudentsuccess@utah.edu.
