What was the biggest challenge you encountered as a transfer college student and how did you overcome it? The lack of comprehensive orientation for transfer students. I just asked a lot of questions and leaned on students who had already been there to figure things out.
What is one piece of advice you would give transfer college students? Ask questions, and seek help. Don't be afraid to be your own advocate so you can get the most out of your college experience.
