RESIDENTS ENGAGED IN ACADEMIC LIVING

Transfer Student Community

This community was created with the intent to bring students that have transferred to UNT closer together. Collaborating with the Transfer Center, the Transfer Students Community will have a unique experience that caters to the special needs of transfer students. This community is for transfer students who would like to take advantage of a built-in support group to smooth the transitional period that transfer students face, by living together as a community either in Kerr Hall or Victory Hall.

If you were to join the REAL Community for the Transfer Students, you would encounter:

• Opportunities to participate in programs that include topics such as: utilizing university resources, how to avoid college pitfalls while engaging in the richness of university life, student panels on college life and engagement, and workshops on study skills, test taking and time management.
• Guest speakers and researchers offering information on a variety of career and real world opportunities
• Programs and activities meant to foster interactions and to help build friendships with people of like interests and backgrounds
• Opportunities for campus and community engagement through a volunteer and/or a service learning component where students provide outreach services for low income families and get them started early on the path towards a college education.
