The Transfer Experience

The final episode is here! Hi everyone, thank you for tuning in and staying with us throughout this season. In this closing episode, Chanyoung, Brielle, and Max go over three things: first, what creating this podcast was like for them; second, what they hope for their listeners; and third, what their final closing thoughts are. For the first time, they also go over a serious question of the day instead of a funny one—and they get some drinks in as well. Listeners, thank you so much. If you enjoyed the pod, please feel free to get in touch. The podcast wishes you success and happiness on your transfer journey. Goodbye!

Hi everyone! Welcome to the second to last episode of this season. In this episode, Chanyoung, Brielle, and Max are joined by Andrew Henry, an Academic Counselor at the UC Berkeley Transfer Center. Andrew is someone who's made a huge impact on their respective transfer experiences, and so the three are thankful to have him as their last and final guest. Together, they talk about the important topic of graduation and life beyond as transfers, along with how and where they would hide a paperclip within 5 minutes to win a prize.

Welcome back! After this episode, there are just two episodes left for this season. In this one, Chanyoung (Paul), Brielle, and Max are joined by Chris Quintana, a 4th-year transfer student at the California State University, Fullerton. Currently, he works as an intern at the NBC and has worked before in other organizations in the entertainment industry; he's here in this episode to share his insight and wisdom to transfer students! From fun topics, such as choosing to go to either a part of the country or the Moon, to serious topics such as internships and career development, the four members have a meaningful and insightful conversation together that may be of help to you, the listener!

Wow, it's already episode 9! The end of season 1 is near. In this episode, Chanyoung, Brielle, and Max are joined by the San Francisco State University's Transfer Mentors, who share their transfer experiences at SFSU. Together, the six go over things that not too many people know about them (such as someone's being an avid reviewer on Goodreads), and they discuss in detail how they found friends and communities and how they got involved at campus. The Transfer Experience is a unique one—so many thanks to Tatiana and Alexis for sharing theirs. Special shoutout to Jasmine, Daja, Nia, and everyone else at the SFSU Transfer Mentor Team who got involved with this project as well!

Woohoo! Nice to see you again. In episode 8, Chanyoung (Paul), Brielle, and Max are joined by Gigi, a transfer student at USC. Together, they first go over what their most used emojis are (if you know what emoji Chanyoung is talking about, then please let him know the correct name for that emoji), and then they discuss what their typical days looked like, in terms of studying, social life, mental health, and more.

Back at it again! In episode 7, Chanyoung (Paul), Brielle, and Max are joined by Grecia Resendez in their discussion about housing and money. Each one of them picked a different housing option—on-campus dorm, commuting, off-campus apartment, and university village, respectively—and thus each one shares the unique pros and cons of his or her option. They also discuss other important aspects of housing, such as location and community, and share their horror stories as well. At the end, they go over what kind of people their housing options make the most sense to.

Hello again and welcome back! In episode 6, Chanyoung (Paul), Brielle, and Max go over a few things to keep in mind when you start receiving your acceptance letters. They answer questions such as: how do you deal with the feeling of imposter syndrome when you get accepted? What factors should you think about when deciding where to commit to? And what's the best way to spend the summer before transferring? They also answer another key question: what are their favorite utensils? Oh! In addition, the three address the first email question they received from a listener!

In this episode, Chanyoung (Paul), Max, and Brielle, along with their first guest on the pod, discuss what’s perhaps one of the most important aspects of transferring—the application process itself. They touch on both the UC applications and the Common App for transfers; they also go over their experiences and some key takeaways. Listeners, if you are thinking about applying some time soon or in the near future, this is for you—stay ahead of the game with this episode.
