Partnership Advising
Meeting with your University Partnership advisor or representative is an important early step in planning your academic future. We recommend you request a preliminary evaluation of your transfer credits to better understand the type of classes you need to take during your first year at one of the University Partnership institutions.
Your advisor can help with University Partnership academic major information, transfer credit policies, evaluation of transcripts for transfer credit, and graduation requirements so you can make the most informed transfer decision. Many of the partners are offering phone, Zoom and/or Google Meet appointments.
You can find your University Partnership representative and contact information in the list below. You will also find campus videos and virtual tours for many of our partners so you can become more familiar with the campus and feel more a part of your future college or university.
