Student Stories
	Transfer Life is a mentorship program as well as a community of support for current and incoming transfer students.

Transfer students are an essential part of the Hampshire community. Whether arriving from a large university, a community college, or another small college, our transfer students are attracted to Hampshire's personalized academic experience as well as the vibrant community on and off campus. This site is a resource to aid in your transfer experience at Hampshire College, to help point you in the right direction, answer questions you might have, and address needs that are specific to the transfer experience.

Academic support for transfer students

In addition to connecting you with resources, Transfer Life holds ongoing social and academic programs specifically for transfer students. You will receive periodic emails from us letting you know about upcoming events, and we hope to see you at many of these fun opportunities.

Transfer Life is a relatively new program, so keep an eye on our website over the course of the coming semesters as we further develop our resources to support you!
