What do you enjoy most about VT or your major? I love my classes! In every class I’m learning skills and information that will be useful for my career. The professors here are engaging and deeply care for their students. I don’t feel like I’m trying to check off boxes for graduation but that I’m actually learning important information!
What is one piece of advice you would give to a potential transfer student? It can be scary coming in and completely starting over. Make sure you give yourself enough time to adapt. Get involved, make friends, find your passions, and once you gain your footing you’ll feel as though you truly belong here!
