Students interested in transferring from community college to 成人头条 will soon have an online portal designed just for them.
This December, WSU will roll out its new Transfer Portal, a student-facing technology designed to engage prospects, answer their key questions and keep them on track to enroll.
Students can use the portal to compare majors and associated career paths to determine their best fit. They also will have the ability to enter prior coursework and get an estimate of their transferrable credits. An enrollment checklist will give students a customized list of key events and deadlines.
Additionally, students will be able to dig deeper into their career aspirations and learn about jobs in their proposed field of study.
Students can view a list of careers related to their target majors. Each career includes salary ranges, hiring demand and typical education and experience requirements.
Having this portal for transfer students will allow WSU to engage with students earlier in the application process and help them with the three most common questions they have: what courses will transfer, how long will it take to complete a degree at WSU and how much will it cost, said Rick Muma, senior associate vice president for academic affairs and strategic enrollment management.
WSU is in the testing phase and plans to launch the portal in December, a time when most transfer students start engaging with universities for the next year鈥檚 fall enrollment.
