The Transfer Student Center at UC Berkeley is excited to be participating in the -- a 24 hour cross-campus fundraising event! Established in 1999, the Transfer Student Center is the first of its kind in the UC system, paving the way for greater transfer student support, advocacy, and recognition across all University of California campuses.
The initial vision was to create a modest space on campus that could provide support to the growing transfer student population on campus. As transfer enrollment has grown, so has the need for expanded services. The Transfer Student Center has helped thousands of transfer students over the years navigate a new campus culture, adjust to the demands of the research university, explore career development opportunities, and build community.
YOU can help us grow, expand, and build on the many years of Transfer Love to come! and Help us make a in the lives of students who began their journey at community college, worked hard to overcome odds, never gave up, and who earned their place at the #1 public university in the nation!
