Transfer Seminar

Student Transfer Seminar

Transfer students possess a unique set of attributes that can be leveraged for improved academic performance, holistic well-being and overall success.

The GEN S350, one-unit course, is specifically designed to support transfer students in enhancing and understanding their academic and personal success skills to ensure a smooth transition to San Diego State University and facilitate success beyond graduation.

The material covered in this class will assist in your development and understanding of academic and personal success skills, ensuring a smooth transition and support during your transition to SDSU. With the help of other transfer student classmates, you will 

• Create collaborative, dynamic, and supportive learning environments
• Strengthen current learning and interpersonal skills for both academic and personal success.
• Learn about yourselves and the many learning communities and resources that exist within SDSU.
• Identify, reflect, and implement personal and community strategies to achieve short and long term goals.

Here is what past course participants are saying:

• " I felt very isolated and disconnected from the other students who attended SDSU at the beginning of the semester. I am grateful for taking this class and meeting you all. I learned and grew so much in the past few months and as much as I want to take all the credit for that growth, I wouldn’t have done it without the instructors and the colleagues around me. Classes like this challenge me to dream bigger."
• "Specifically, classes like GEN-S350 have provided me with a profound sense of direction for my time at SDSU, and I could not be more thankful for this experience."
• "I feel better mentally. I met other transfer students that were going through the same adjustment I was experiencing."
• "I wish I would have taken this course in my first semester."
