Hi, everyone, welcome.
I'm going to talk to you a little bit about
the Triton Transfer Hub today.
My name is Dr. Jackie Duerr.
I am the Program Manager for Transfer Students Success.
A little bit about the Triton Transfer Hub,
we are here to help
your students transition to UC San Diego.
The Triton Transfer Hub provides academic, personal,
and professional support to transfer students from
the moment they accept their offer
to their graduation day.
Transfers can get connected
to the Triton Transfer Hub right away.
I do recommend that individuals find us on
our website, transferstudents.ucsd.edu.
It's a great way to get connected right
away to all things Triton Transfer.
A couple of fun things about
the Triton Transfer Hub in terms of our offerings.
The Transfer Hub offers transfer-specific social events,
and professional and academic workshops.
Online, the students can also find blogs, spotlights,
a virtual Storytellers Gallery
about transfer student experiences,
and the new student guide.
All of that is found on our website.
We also offer weekly newsletters for
transfer-specific opportunities and events.
If your students are looking for jobs,
then our newsletter is a great way
to find opportunities there.
Every year, we host annual events
for our transfer students.
In fall, we have National Transfer Student Week.
This is a great opportunity to celebrate
your transfer student's experiences,
whether it's from the Community College to here.
We have events, food, workshops, prizes,
and so much more,
and it's just a campus-wide celebration
in honor of your students.
In winter, you heard me
mentioned earlier the Storytellers Gallery.
We have the storytellers contest and gallery in winter.
This is were we ask students to
submit a story through art.
We have different students submit things
from paintings to poetry,
and it's actually quite splendid to
see everything that students share,
and it's all about resilience and the transfer identity.
We offer scholarship opportunities to the winners
and we have opportunities
for the students to connect to faculty,
staff, and the San Diego community through this outlet.
Then finally in spring,
we want to make sure transfer students are
connected from the get go and are
ready for the next year that they
continue their journey here at UC San Diego.
We offer, Maximizing Your Next Year.
We partner with different departments to
make sure that students know
exactly what they need to do,
whether it's about getting connected for
graduate school or leadership
opportunities, things like that.
We make sure that transfers are ready
for their next year in the spring.
That said, transfer students can also
make sure that they are getting connected academically,
socially, and professionally through
participating in Transfer, Network, and Go.
This is an opportunity for transfer students to
build their transcript at
UC San Diego by submitting their connections,
all the different types of connections they
have to the Triton Transfer Hub,
and the more connections they make,
the more they can add to Transfer, Network, Go.
It's a great resume builder.
Basically, it's an opportunity for us to say,
we will reward transfers for their connections to campus.
Your students can connect with a peer coach today.
Peer coaches are our flagship service in the office.
We really want to make sure that your student can
connect with other students,
and this is how they can do it.
They can talk with someone
who's walked within their shoes.
Whether it's a question,
big or small, our peer coaches have their back.
They're trained to support on
enrollment and career questions.
They provide in person,
phone or online appointments, and they're available today.
Students can just make an appointment online.
We are unable to answer questions
on admission's requirements though.
This service is focused on what is
the transfer experience like at UC San Diego.
That said, we host many workshops and events.
If your student is looking to get connected to see,
what are they talking about in the Triton Transfer Hub?
They can find more information about
the transfer experience on Triton Transfer TV on YouTube.
We highly encourage you to
check out our YouTube channel,
ways to get connected today.
That said, there are other ways that
your students can get connected now.
We are on so many social media platforms.
In particular, I highly
recommend your students get contacted
with us through Instagram @tritontransfers.
We're also on Facebook,
we're on Reddit, we're on Discord.
We mentioned YouTube earlier.
We're also on Spotify.
Your students can get connected to
all of these things right away.
As I mentioned too,
make sure your students are checking out
our website for great tips
and great ways to get connected right away.
Thank you so much.
I hope you enjoyed hearing
a little bit about the Triton Transfer Hub.
