Transfer Advising Support

Get the credit you deserve.

Students who transfer to Meredith are able to stay on track with their academic goals by using the services of The Student Success Center.

Each new transfer student receives a personal transfer credit evaluation, which ensures that they get the maximum credit hours for courses they’ve previously taken. After the evaluation, students can work with the Student Success Center to establish a plan for achieving their academic goals.

As their time continues at Meredith, transfer students may use the services of the Student Success Center to stay on target, which include academic coaching and academic progress discussions.

Transfer students collaborate with their Faculty Advisors and Student Success Center to ensure degree completion and discuss academic goals.

The Student Success Center

The Student Success Center is available to support transfer students in every area of planning for academic success. Students work with staff to:

• Arrange meetings with program coordinators (for those who know their intended major)
• Explore and consider majors (for those who are undecided)
• Review transfer credit evaluations once completed (Please note, the SSC cannot evaluate transcripts. Transcripts are evaluated by the Registrar’s Office.)
• Identify academic strengths and interests
• Implement and evaluate academic action plans

Faculty Advisors

Transfer students are assigned a faculty advisor within their program of study upon deposit. This advisor will advise based on the student’s academic history and goals. Transfer students who are undecided are advised by staff in the Office of Academic Advising until a major has been declared.

Faculty Advisors:

• Assist students in their consideration and clarification of educational goals
• Assist students in developing a plan of study consistent with their goals and objectives
• Provide accurate information to students and are available for discussions
• Possess knowledge of programs, resources, policies and procedures
• Provide timely attention to academic advising matters
• Assist students in evaluation and re-evaluation of progress toward established goals and educational plans
• Make referrals to resources within and outside of the college as appropriate
