FALL TIPS Workshop
Transfer Information Program for Success
Want to make a smart transition to K-State? Join us for TIPS, the Transfer Information Program for Success. This workshop is especially for students thinking about transferring to K-State.
You’ll learn the secrets of navigating the K-State transfer path from Dr. Pat Bosco, vice president for student life. You’ll choose sessions on topics ranging from financial aid to campus jobs to transfer credits. You’ll meet other transfer students, learn more about your major, look at housing options, and learn about transfer scholarships.
This workshop is best suited for students transferring to K-State in summer or fall 2010 or in spring or fall 2011. If you’re planning to enroll at K-State for spring 2010 classes, attend the early enrollment day for admitted students on November 20.
