Transfer Express

[How to Register] [Questions?]

Transfer Express is a great way to get acclimated to Western Michigan University before fall semester kicks off. The four-day program focuses on meeting other transfer students, taking care of business, and attending sessions about advising, resources, and navigating WMU. There’s even a chance to start exploring Kalamazoo! As an added benefit, participants living in the residence halls move in three days early.

We’ve combined the best social and informational elements from several programs and rolled them into something uniquely geared for transfer students like you. When you register for Transfer Express, you are signing up for a great time and a chance to get a head start on everyone else. This is an event you don’t want to miss!
