Transfer2Terp Learning Community
To ease your transition to the University of Maryland, you can join the Transfer2Terp (T2T) Learning Community. The T2T Learning Community offers first-semester transfer students the opportunity to take HESI310, a 3-credit upper-level course designed to translate your previous success into a strong start at Maryland. T2T students work alongside peer mentors to achieve a seamless transition into campus life and culture.
If you are interested in enrolling in this course, talk to your advisor about it during Orientation. Then, email tocsl@umd.edu to request course permission. Course space is limited and registration is accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis.
