Celebrating Transfer Students
This year's theme is:
"Unlocking Potential: Keys to the Transfer Journey."
"This year’s theme celebrates the wealth of skills, knowledge, and perspectives that transfer students bring to our campuses. It recognizes they possess their own unique ''keys'—their problem-solving skills and adaptability, diverse lived experiences, and connections to community—and are motivated to achieve their goals." - NISTS
