So You Want to Transfer?

All those students planning on transferring to a four year school next fall: Make sure all of your information has been sent to the transfer school! Many deadlines have already past but others will be coming up very soon.

Many students come out of high school expecting college will be exciting and easily handled. Many have no idea what they want to do ... except go to college.


Knowing what you want is important. You need to pick a direction. You need to know that your path is achievable. Planning that path is vital.


Transferring to a four year school is a process not just an event. Talk to a counselor as you plan your future.

VT OPEN HOUSE ~ AUGUST 1st

We want you to come and see that Virginia Tech is dedicated to providing transfer students with a quality education that builds upon prior academic experience, rather than duplicating it. We have organized a Transfer Visit Day during the month of August.

Please note that this event has been structured specifically for students who have already graduated from high school and are currently enrolled in college full-time. If you currently are a high school student who is taking dual enrollment classes, you may wish to attend our Fall Open House instead, an event designed specifically for high school students who intend to enroll at Virginia Tech in Fall 2012 or 2013. Learn more about Fall Open House by visiting www.admiss.vt.edu/openhouse.
August 1 - Register today!
Participation is free. In order to participate you will need to:
