Tips for Transferring in College

Transferring has become one of the best ways to save money when moving through college. Starting at a community college and moving to a university is cheaper and leads to higher income later. Yet it’s a process that isn’t always easy, with inconveniences and obstacles that are hard to avoid. 


Luckily, there are three solutions to make the process easier and more effective. The first is looking for a transfer pathway.

Over half of all students are struggling to fulfill their basic needs, such as food and housing, due to the financial pressures from their academic expenditures.

The Fight to Keep College Classrooms Filled

There has been a general trend in colleges and school campuses closing, and in some cases, permanently shutting down. From 2016 to 2019, 86 colleges shut down or merged with other schools, and even more, 53 colleges closed permanently during the 2019-2020 school year. 


In 2020, 56% of US college students said they could no longer afford their tuition, as they needed to figure out a new way to pay because of the impact of COVID-19.
