National Transfer Student Week

National Transfer Student Week is the third week in October every year! Join the Office of Student Transition Experiences  to celebrate the great work of our transfer students. We will host events and social media campaigns throughout the week to support, recognize, and celebrate what it means to be a Transfer student here at Northwestern! Save the dates: OCtober 19-23rd, 2026.


Past Events


Transfer Student Social:

In partnership with our Transfer Student Organization (TSO), we are inviting transfers to join us for dinner, music, and games. This is a completely free event and open to all current undergraduate transfers, regardless of the year you came to Northwestern. 

Transfer Career Planning:

Northwestern Career Advancement will be hosting Transfer Student Walk-in Hours. Bring your resume, cover letters, or just questions you have for staff! This is a space for you to ask for any career advice specific to your needs.

Follow us on social media

Join us on the Wildcat Welcome Instagram page where we will be celebrating our amazing Transfers all week, by highlighting our Transfer Peer Advisors, sharing some of our favorite transfer moments from Wildcat Welcome 2025, and we will even be doing some Transfer themed trivia!
