Transfer Resources

Academic Advising

There are two ways transfer students can receive advising information: general advising and major-specific advising. General advising is great for students that have basic questions about admissions, the transfer process to USF, and introductory information on USF majors. Major-specific advising is great for students that know exactly what they want to major in and need more in-depth information about the major's prerequisites, degree requirements, clubs, and extra-curricular activities. Please note email is always the preferred method for contacting an advisor. Keep in mind that during January, April, August, and November, it will take our advisors longer to respond to emails because of peak registration times. If you'd like to set up an appointment, please see the email addresses for each major below. 

GENERAL ADVISING
For general transfer advising inquiries, please contact the Office of Transfer Student Success at transfer-advising@usf.edu.

Don't delay! It's never too early to schedule an appointment with your MAJOR Academic Advisor!

Schedule a meeting with your major academic advisor to stay on track and remove any holds that will prevent you from registering for next semester.
