The key to my success is having a great support system that includes my mom, my brother, my partner, and most importantly, myself. 

Some advice I can offer to transfer students is don't be afraid to reach out to your advisors for ANY questions you may have. I think the career center is very useful as well. Use your resources! They are here for a reason.

Good luck and welcome to SDSU!]]> 2021-10-12 23:04:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ccortez51/cywpnxyjwwfwsh1x/wish/1812184314 kisgar8505 https://padlet.com/ccortez51/cywpnxyjwwfwsh1x/wish/1812220338 Community College:

Major:
ITEP Multi-Subject

Key Success: My key to success is to take it one day at a time, one class at a time. When I look at the big picture and all of my obstacles, I get a bit overwhelmed. I have learned that breaking it down to that motto, really helps me stay focused and ultimately helps me get to my goal. 

Advice for transfer students is to stay organized and have good time management. Don't Procrastinate.  

Go Aztecs!

Community College: Diablo Valley College

Major: Child and Family Development

The key to my success has been to set short-term and long-term goals to keep myself on track without becoming overwhelmed. Also, success could not be possible without the support of friends, family, professors and classmates, being there when I have questions or am in need of assistance.

Advice I can offer transfer students is to make regular appointments with your advisor before you're struggling, they want you to succeed and having regular contact can help you stay on track for graduation, completing your minor(s) and major(s) as well as planning for post-grad. Just because you can do it alone, doesn't mean you have to!! I also would say to embrace your new environment and immerse yourself, try new hobbies, explore your neighborhood, and if you're working, try a new/fun/different job than your major to prevent burnout and explore new arenas.

Major:
Liberal Studies Elementary Education

The key to my success has been to set goals, to surround myself with people that are positive and lift me up, and to be determined.

Advice for transfer students is to stay organized, stay in contact with your advisor, develop good time management, and make friends in each of your classes :)

Major: Child Development 
Minor: Honors Minor in Interdisciplinary Studies

The key to my success has been the guidance I have received from my husband, my mother, my academic advisors, my teachers, and other people I've encountered in my time here at SDSU. Also, emotional support has been a great part of my success, and thank you to my children, my husband, my siblings, my parents, and my in laws, I've never lack of it. Without their support, school would've looked very different for me.  


My advice to transfer students is to stay organized and find a support system. It could be a mentor, and advisor, another transfer student, or anyone else who can serve as a guide and point out to different resources available on campus. ]]> 2021-10-16 05:26:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ccortez51/cywpnxyjwwfwsh1x/wish/1820777908 znaniye44 https://padlet.com/ccortez51/cywpnxyjwwfwsh1x/wish/1831197319 Community College: San Diego Mesa College

What's been the key to your success? The key to my success is knowing that after each semester has ended, I am a step closer to obtaining that degree. One day after another is all it takes. Do look at the huge picture but live in the moment with a single day.

What advice can you offer to transfer students? You can do it, If you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything. You can go as far as sky lets you.]]> 2021-10-20 17:42:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ccortez51/cywpnxyjwwfwsh1x/wish/1831197319
