The chance to obtain these things without having to pay the hefty tuition rates that usually accompany such items is fast approaching, according to Anne Goldade, academic advising specialist. . Transfer Day, an annual event host ed by a team of CCC academic advisors (including Goldade), takes place this Thursday in the Gregory'Forum from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event will feature representatives from over 20 Oregon colleges and universities, including Washington State University. Also, a recent addition of refresh ments and door prizes will be on dis play. “We’re hoping that it will be a big incentive for students to attend,” Goldade said. Perhaps an even more alluring aspect for some is the opportunity to speak with knowledgeable representa tives readily available to answer ques tions and distribute information about potential venues for higher education. “We believe this is the best way for [stu dents] to gather information about the school they are planning on transferring to,” Goldade said. “The majority of our transfer ring students Offend in-stat^g schools.” ' Anne GoldSdO Academic , Advising Specialist Transfer day is especially helpful to students who wish to attend in-state uni versities outside the Portland area, such as Eastem Oregon University, Southern Oregon University, and Willamette University. Attending Such an event could be both time and cost effective for many students. “The majority of our transferring students attend in-state schools, and this event saves die time of a student travel ing all over the state to gather informa tion,” Goldade commented. Even for students who have not made a decision regarding their transfer institution, or are not planning on trans ferring in the near future, this event could serve as a helpful start to research ing what university or college would work best for them. “Good questions to ask representa tives would be regarding application deadlines, admission requirements, and scholarship opportunities,” Goldade said. Preparation is also a key factor for those using this event as a college pre view day. “Students should come with the idea of what questions to ask and specific schools they want to visit with,” Goldade said. In regards to why the advisers chose to add door prizes and refreshments to this year’s event, Goldade commented that even though there was a great turn out last year, they , hope to continue to build attendance for the event. In other words, come for the free food and stay for the free facts.
