What are TRIGS?
Finding community is an important part of the college experience and Transfer Student Programs wants to ensure you have opportunities to create meaningful connections here on campus. Due to an overwhelming demand, you can now connect with like-minded students in our Transfer Interest Groups (TRIGs)! Each TRIG is focused on a specialized topic, so you are able to connect with other students who have similar interests and aspirations.
At a TRIG meeting, you will find faculty, staff, and students who care about you and want to help you succeed. You can get involved with a student group, meet new friends, and learn about campus resources. Each event is come-and-go and we will provide snacks.
Transfer Student Programs hopes that this will help you create a connection with our larger campus community!
