You belong here at UNL, and the full range of resources and opportunities applies to you, too! We also recognize that navigating campus can look a little different as a transfer student—so these presentations are designed specifically with your unique journey in mind. Our goal is to help you make the most of your time at Nebraska and connect with others who share similar experiences.
Join us on the last Wednesday of each month from 1-1:50pm in Love Library South 224. During this time, presenters will share resources and discuss how you might integrate these opportunities into your Husker experience. There will also be time to connect with fellow transfer students and meet CAST’s Transfer Peer Mentors!
