The transfer living experience house is specifically designed to meet the needs of students who transfer from a community college or another four-year institution. The house creates an environment where you can live in a community with other transfer students and provides connections to a variety of campus resources.
Transfer house residents have close contact with an upper-class transfer student (Transfer Link Housing Liaison) who resides in the transfer house. The transfer living experience house is classified as a coed house. This experience is a joint partnership between the Office of Housing and Residence Life and the Office of Second-Year, Transfer, and Non-Traditional Student Programs.
