Small group sessions focused on improving skills related to the TOEFL English proficiency exam.

Are you preparing to graduate and working on your transfer applications? This session is designed to give you the time and space to focus.

You'll have access to a quiet workspace where you can work independently on your four-year college applications - whether you're starting your Common App, drafting your transfer essay, or gathering materials. A transfer advisor will be available to help with questions, offer guidance on where to begin, and point you toward helpful resources.

While this isn't a formal workshop with step-by-step instruction, it's a great opportunity to get support with those tricky or unclear parts of the process. Use the time in whatever way works best for you.

Desktop computers will be available, or feel free to bring your laptop, drafts, and questions. We're here to help you move forward!
