The Transfer Success Series (TSS) will introduce you, as a transfer student, to the unique campus resources and opportunities available at American University. You will participate in a coordinated learning experience and also develop the academic and social skills necessary for your success. You will work in hands-on experiences designed to transfer what you have learned in workshops to the classroom and beyond. Only open to new transfer students, this program will provide you with the chance to meet fellow transfer students, including current students who serve as mentors and offer peer-to-peer guidance.
