At the beginning of each fall and spring semester, the Office of First Year Experience & Retention Initiatives hosts various events to allow new and returning transfer students to meet each other. These events happen at various times throughout the Week of Welcome.
For the month of February, we will highlight what we love about UA transfer students. Our Bama Transfers community is full of students who are involved on campus, committed to their goals, have a lot of school spirit, who are intentional about their success, and who bring many different perspectives and values to the UA community.
