Thank you for your interest in the Transfer Mentor Program!
The Transfer Mentor Program (TMP) is designed to provide incoming transfer students with support in their career and academic development. Transfer Students are matched with faculty or staff members whose professional experiences match the students' academic and career interests. The program includes 1:1 meetings with these assigned mentors, one large, mandatory, event at the beginning of the semester, and a monthly series where transfer students will engage in professional development and develop a network of resources at TU. The guidance that students receive will enhance the overall experience for transfer students at Towson University.
