Transfer Orientation

Welcome to ��ڿ��!

The next steps for transfer students are designed to provide them with the information and guidance needed to make their transition to ��ڿ�� successful. Students are encouraged to bookmark this website and regularly check back. This page will be updated often with important details, updates and new opportunities about their orientation experience.

Upon acceptance, each student will receive information via email prompting them to submit their deposit. Deposits may be submitted at bridgew.edu/deposit. Once a student submits their deposit, they will receive a confirmation email and the Transfer Checklist.

The Transfer Checklist guides students through the orientation process for a smooth transition to ��ڿ��. The steps outlined are very important and each step should be completed thoroughly. We believe once you complete these steps, you will be in a great position to continue your academic journey at ��ڿ��.

If at any point you have questions or need additional information, please know that Transfer Services is dedicated to supporting you during your transition. We encourage you to reach out and connect with a transfer representative at any point at 508.531.2686 or email TransferCentral@bridgew.edu.
