Transfer Visit Options

Transfer Visit Options In my opinion, there’s no better way to figure out if a school is a good fit for you than to take an official campus visit. You’re able to see campus, taste the food, meet other students, sit in on a class, and more. As a transfer student, you need different information than freshmen so we have many different visit options just for you! Just a quick note before we get started: these visits are specifically for students who are interested in transferring to Illinois. Many different students can fall into this category, whether you’re already at another post-secondary institution, or you’re in high school and you already know that transferring is going to be your path to Illinois. Transfer Information Sessions These sessions are around two and a half hours in length and include a presentations by Undergraduate Admissions, a student panel, and a campus tour. You can also request a meeting with your intended college if you want more information about your major and the opportunities available to you. Both prospective and admitted transfer students can attend these visits. This fall we will be offering a limited number of early evening visits from 5:30-6:30 p.m. They will still include a presentation by Undergraduate Admissions, a student panel, and a campus tour. While you’re on campus I encourage you to visit a class, take a housing tour, and explore Champaign-Urbana. Transfer Orange and Blue Days Think of an Orange and Blue Day like an open house. They are geared towards prospective students and include presentations by Undergraduate Admissions, University Housing, and the Office of Student Financial Aid. There are also housing tours, college sessions, and many other activities available as well. Transfer Illini Day Transfer Illini Day is held each spring specifically for our admitted fall transfer students. Eligible students will receive an invitation via email. In addition to a presentation by Undergraduate Admission and a student panel, there are many activities to choose from such as college and departmental meetings, walk-in hours with the Office of Student Financial Aid, University Housing, tours, and more. No matter which of our transfer visit options you choose I’m sure that you’ll leave our campus knowing much more about Illinois, the admission, application, and review process, as well as the opportunities we have for our transfer students. Come on out to Champaign-Urbana and explore! transfer visit Fabian Admissions Counselor, Undergraduate Admissions I'm excited to help transfer students navigate and master the application process to find the right fit for them. As an Illinois transfer student and now an alumni, providing this information is my priority.
