More Transfer Talk

If you are transferring for Fall 2009, chances are that you are wound pretty tight right now. If I have to fill out one more form with my name, address, and personal and academic goals I think I might start to drool. Why did I choose my major again? Let me revise for the sixteenth time why I deserve to go to your school. Blah blah passion blah blah academic excellence.......

My bitter rant aside, Annika Mertz at the SCCC Transfer Center has been very helpful in expediting this process. There are computers in the transfer center so you can just camp out there for a day filling out your awful, awful common application and its like having someone in your pocket to help you navigate through some of the more convoluted questions.

She is offering several college transfer workshops during this quarter as well. There is one in particular that I think every student should take called "How To Write Your Personal Statement". Check them out on the calender (scroll to the bottom of the page)! It has some nifty stuff on it aside from workshops.

You can browse any of the calender events simply by clicking on the link and asking for more details. Please do not hesitate to email me at samfeedback@gmail.com for any corrections in names, dates, etc.

Enjoy your first week of Winter Quarter!
