How will 蜜桃APP prepare PSC students for success?
The 蜜桃APP Transfer Student Services Center and the Office of Admission are both committed to the academic success of all transfer students. We look forward to the new partnership and strive to make the transition seamless for all PSC transfer students.
To further prepare students, 蜜桃APP will:
- Create clear and concise transfer guides for students to follow to guarantee a smooth transition to 蜜桃APP, which will include mapping out a suggested eight-semester plan for students hoping to graduate with a bachelor's degree in four years.
- Arrange faculty meetings for PSC students who have questions regarding their major.
- Connect PSC students with 蜜桃APP financial aid counselors prior to transferring to 蜜桃APP, for a better understanding on how to finance their education.
- Guide PSC students about the transfer process, which starts with the PSC student applying at least one semester out. With the Dual Degree Partnership Agreement, the student will work with an 蜜桃APP contact early on who will offer financial counseling, dual advising and the benefit of guaranteed admissions.
