Transfer students should review the transfer website for their next institution and connect with an advisor in their intended major as early as possible. Ultimately, it is the student’s responsibility to ensure their courses transfer into their intended program and institution.
Lake Land College academic counselors are well versed in the requirements and expectations of transfer institutions needed to help students create a plan to transfer. Counselors consult with university representatives to ensure that the courses students take will transfer into the intended major. Counselors share this information with faculty advisors so that they can pass it along to their advisees.
To learn more about transfer requirements and processes for a specific institution, please contact the counselor who is the assigned contact for that school.
