Tea on Transfer | Transfer Shock | February 2023
Tea on Transfer is back! We asked you what you thought about the term ‘transfer shock’ and this month we’re talking about it! We will cover: when the term originated, how it has evolved, and how transfer professionals can best support students during their transitional period at both the sending and receiving institutions. Also, stick around to hear this month’s media recommendations and shoutouts!
