What was the biggest challenge you encountered as a transfer college student and how did you overcome it? The biggest challenge I encountered as a transfer college students was the difference in campus culture. I overcame this challenge by joining student orgs, moving my "study spots" to locations on campus rather than in my apartment to meet new people, and not being afraid to say "hi!" to someone I didn't know. Some of my best friends today were on the other end of that "hi".
What is one piece of advice you would give transfer college students? Get active on your campus!!!
