14. Hear what a few past and
current transfer students
have to say about their time
at the UO…

15. “Set up a time schedule. The community college I came
from was worlds apart from classes at UO.”
– Grant Smith
“Blackboard lists the emails of both students and
instructors if you need to contact someone in a class.”
– Derek Allen
“Don’t be afraid to tell people you’re a transfer student,
especially professors. If anything, they will be more
willing to help you find everything you need to be
successful.” – Jordan Giboney

16. Zach Wegner
Class of ’08 – B.A. in Sociology
Zach transferred to the UO from Portland Community College, where
he currently works as a part-time advisor. He has two pieces of advice
for transfer students:
1. “Take a transfer seminar. They give you tons of
info on campus resources and a small group of
friends.”
3. “Get involved on campus! There’s no better way to
figure out where your passions lie. Also, it’s great
for networking.”

17. Lindsey Anderson
“Locate where your classroom or
lecture hall is before the first day of
class. It isn't always easy trying to
find buildings or rooms.”

18. Natalie Wells
“Keep at it. Stay the course. It will be
tough, but in the end it will be for
your greater good.”

19. Joshua Foster
“It simply is not enough to visit a website,
read the catalog, or take a class. To be
truly successful you must develop a
personal relationship with your
professors, department head, and
GTF’s.”

20. Matthew
Parker

Transfer Seminar to Kirchmeler

successful at UO. They
