The Transfer Center helps students research their options and make plans for a smooth transition to a four-year university or other institution.
You can speak with a counselor or academic adviser by using the following options.
Appointments (In person and Zoom)
You can use our online scheduling tool to make an appointment for a counseling session.
If there are no appointments available, please check back, as new appointment times will become available every day.
You may also visit General Counseling and Retention Support Services for available appointments.
Drop-in Sessions (via Zoom)
Drop-in sessions are only 10-15 minutes and are meant for quick questions regarding academic, career, and transfer counseling and advising. These sessions are not meant for completing a comprehensive educational plan, personal counseling or financial aid extension.
