Meet Cas Flores, a transfer student from Denver, CO!

Cas transferred to Missouri State University from Wichita State University. Cas is pursuing the Psychology program at Missouri State University.

When asked why Cas chose to transfer to Missouri State University, Cas said that the Psychology and Criminology programs influenced the decision to transfer, along with the number and types of courses offered.

Cas says, “moving to a new state and city, without family and friends” has been the most challenging part of transferring to Missouri State. Cas says, “the classes and the environment at MSU” have been the most enjoyable part of the transfer experience.

Cas’s advice for a new transfer student would be to not, “hesitate to ask questions and advocate for yourself when you hit a dead end. Moving can be intimidating and is often a completely new experience for many.”

Cas would like to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to the people who have supported Cas the most during the transfer process at Missouri State – Cas’s brother, Joshua, who “helped me physically move”, Dr. Lewis, “for introducing me to resources for the Native Community”, and Judi M., “who has provided sound advice during my work-study in TRIO/Access & Success”.
