Why Join the Transfer
Scholars Network?

We know transferring to a highly selective four-year college or university can seem like a long, complex process. It can seem unaffordable and out of reach. At the Transfer Scholars Network, we’re here to ensure you have the opportunity to continue your higher education journey.

Why? We (and our four-year partners) benefit from the perspectives and skills you can bring to their campuses. Being nominated for this initiative signals that you are among the best and brightest students in the country-and that you can thrive at any one of these institutions.
