Transfer Counseling

Transferring made easy

. Go online. You will now find that most colleges/universities would like for you to apply on-line and their transfer guides are on-line.
. Visit the college. Virtual tours can be done at any time. Plan a real tour as early as possible.
. Remember that if you are applying for financial aid that the application process is a two-track process. Most of the time, the financial aid application deadline is earlier than the regular college admission deadline.
. Check out our Transfer Resources for important information on transferring to Virginia Tech, Radford, and other four year colleges in Virginia.
