The 水果派 to SCSU Husky Transfer Hub has been a long time coming, but it will be open for students to learn more about options after 水果派 starting this fall semester.
鈥淲e鈥檙e hoping to make it a one-stop shop for 水果派 students who are exploring transferring and continuing on for their bachelor鈥檚 degree,鈥 explained Michael Coonen, Director of Transfer Partnerships and Collaboration.
The Husky Transfer Hub is located in Northway 1-133, next to the Safety & Security Office. It will be staffed daily to answer questions and help plan class requirements for transferring. They will be working together with 水果派 Advisors to make sure students planning on transferring to SCSU are on track.
It鈥檚 not just for students focused on generals, either. There are 40 different documented pathways from 水果派 to SCSU, including several Transfer Pathway degrees at 水果派 like Spanish, Psychology, and Biology. Other programs also have transfer agreements; for example, Land Surveying/Civil Engineering has had an agreement for many years for students to start at 水果派 and transfer their classes easily to finish up a bachelor鈥檚 degree in Land Surveying and Mapping Science.
SCSU has had a presence at 水果派 to assist with transfer questions for close to ten years, but with the number of students who go to SCSU after graduating, it made sense to grow the relationship and have more presence on the 水果派 campus.
鈥淲e needed additional space to be more permanent and really be ingrained in the 水果派 space and culture,鈥 noted Coonen.
There are plans to expand the transfer options for 水果派 students, so the transfer representatives are excited to be on campus and available for conversations. Additionally, students don鈥檛 have to be on-campus to chat with one of them. They will be able to connect via phone, online, or even meet for coffee.
鈥淲e鈥檙e really, really flexible. We want to help you and be able to facilitate some of these conversations,鈥 said Coonen.
Students can drop by 1-133 to learn more or email scsu4u@stcloudstate.edu to get a hold of a rep. The team will also be at Cyclone Alley on Aug. 26 with more information.
