Testimonials
“Transfermations was an awesome experience because it got me excited aboutcoming to Wash U. Having supportive WUSAs and staff also made thetransition process a lot easier especially when registering for classesand signing up for housing.”
“Transfermations was a fun opportunity to get to know other incoming transfers and to explore my new school and the St. Louis area. Having the chance to register for classes early with my dean was definitely a huge advantage, too. Several of the friends I made over that weekend are still some of my closest friends today, and I was reassured in knowing that I would recognize a few faces upon my return for the Fall semester.”
“Visiting in June for Transfermations was one of the best and most reassuring parts of my transfer experience. I met other people who were in the same transition as me and we bonded over that, allowing me to go from a place of apprehension to a place of excitement.”
