Lone Star College is celebrating National Transfer Week by hosting a series of events to help students continue their education. In fall 2022, LSC assisted more than 13,400 students in transferring to a four-year university.
“Lone Star College is committed to helping students transfer once they complete their studies here,” said Dwight Smith, Ed.D., LSC Vice Chancellor Academic and Workforce Success. “These students saved thousands of dollars by starting at Lone Star College and are now ready for the next phase of their academic journey.”
The National Institute for the Study of Transfer Students (NISTS) dedicates the third week in October as National Student Transfer Week, and this year’s events take place Oct. 17-21. The goal is to recognize transfer students and the college professionals who help students achieve the next level of their academic journey.
“I attended Lone Star College-CyFair and took all of the classes that I needed to transfer to and be accepted in the School of Music and the Clarinet Studio at Sam Houston State University,” said Gracie Lopez, LSC transfer student. “I successfully continued my education thanks to the amazing professors and affordable tuition at Lone Star College-CyFair.”
LSC will commemorate National Student Transfer Week by hosting activities at campuses across the system. For a list of events, visit LoneStar.edu.
“Our Transfer Program works with students to ensure they are on the correct path to earning their bachelor’s degree,” said Smith.
LSC also has articulation agreements with more than 50 four-year colleges and universities which ensures a student is on the correct path to earning their bachelor’s degree, allowing them to save time and money.
