Welcome to the College of Humanities and Social Sciences! We know it can be tough to adjust to a new school, and we want to help make your transition here as smooth as possible. A successful transition begins by establishing a relationship with your faculty advisor.
You must contact your advisor before you can register, and this must be completed BEFORE you attend Transfer Student Orientation.
Transfer Advising Checklist
Have you already completed the following?
- Paid Deposit
- Set Up NetID
- Signed into NEST and checked your degree audit (NEST FAQs)
- Completed Foreign Language Placement Test (if you will be taking a language you have experience with)
If so, you are now ready to meet your advisor and register! Select the advisor for your major from the list of majors below. Then send them an email introducing yourself as a new transfer student in their program, and let them know you would like help registering for classes.
