Join us Oct. 16–20 for National Transfer Student Week. We know that transfer students bring extensive diversity and experience to Drake’s campus. The Office of Advising will be hosting a series of events to connect with transfer students and transfer student allies. We encourage departments to join us in celebrating the transfer students who enrich our departments and the supportive faculty and staff who continue to make the transfer process accessible and attainable for entering students.
