New Oregon Transfer Days partnership smoothes students’ transition to universities

Photos and Story by

Thanks to a new approach, the Oregon Transfer Days will make the transition from two- to four-year colleges easier for students.

Portland Community College’s Oregon Transfer Day will have representatives on hand to offer information and advise about bachelor’s degrees at the state’s four-year institutions. PCC is part of a consortium established in 2007 that created a statewide approach to hosting transfer fairs at the state’s 17 community colleges. A more state-oriented structure helps get information out about Oregon’s community colleges and four-year universities more easily to students and the public. Representatives from Oregon’s community colleges, public and private four-year universities will be on hand.

At PCC, the fairs at each comprehensive campus and Southeast Center.
