Transfer Success Series

The School of Public Affairs, in collaboration with New Student Programs and the other schools at AU, is pleased to offer the Transfer Success Series this spring. This program is designed to introduce new transfer students to the unique campus resources and opportunities available at American University. This program also provides new transfers with the chance to meet fellow transfer students in SPA and other schools at AU, and to interact with current students who offer peer-to-peer guidance.

The Transfer Success Series program includes a 7-week workshop series held on Thursday afternoons. Workshop topics will include: career, internship, and resume advising; expectations of AU faculty; undergraduate research opportunities; research tools provided by the AU library; and more.

Please visit the Transfer Success Series website to learn more.
