To help students find their next step, Lone Star College-Montgomery will host College Transfer Day on Thursday, February 2, from 10 a.m.-1 p.m., in the atrium of the Health Science Center (Building B).

Representative from close to 20 universities and colleges will be on campus to provide transfer information about their school to students, as well as community members.

“College Transfer Day is a great opportunity to meet with university representatives to learn more about transferring to their schools, including the degree programs offered and the transfer requirements,” said Michelle Haynes, program manager for career services at LSC-Montgomery.

Some of the schools that will be represented are: Lone Star College-University Center at Montgomery, Sam Houston State University, Texas A&M University, Texas State University, Texas Tech University, University of Houston, University of Houston-Downtown, University of Texas at Austin, Our Lady of the Lake University, University of St. Thomas, and more.

According to Haynes, this event is helpful for students who are ready to begin their upper-level coursework, as well as for those seeking to initially take classes at LSC-Montgomery before they transfer to a four-year university.

College Transfer Day is sponsored by LSC-Montgomery’s office of career services, located in the Student Services Center (Building C).
