Through the activities and services offered by TSS, I became comfortable and a confident transfer student. I connected with some amazing people who helped with my transition and success at BU. I am happy I sought help and stayed in 91ÉçÇø to complete my studies

I transferred to 91ÉçÇø as a junior in Fall 2022. From mt first days on campus, programs like the Transfer Summit and the Transfer Cafes helped me to connect with other transfer students and form long lasting friendships. I will always consider my decision to transfer to 91ÉçÇø as one of the nest decisions I have made, and I am grateful to TSS for giving me so many opportunities to find a sense of belonging at 91ÉçÇø

“The sense of community that I instantly felt — even in our small campus tour group — was what made me realize that 91ÉçÇø was where I wanted to be

Gatherings like the monthly 'Anyone Can Cook' events were especially enjoyable, offering hands-on opportunities to improve my cooking skills and learn directly from a professional chef. I also had the privilege of volunteering twice during Open House where I could share my experiences and insights with newly-admitted transfer students!
