Our Transition and (Transfer)mation Summit is your opportunity to engage with other new transfer students, get a jump start on your career development, and begin to get acclimated to Binghamton University and the local community.
Our summit will be day and half starting at 4:00pm on Thursday, August 15th. Those students who live on campus will be allowed to move in early. Additional information about the move-in process will be communicated as we get closer. As a result of participating in the summit, students will:
- Gain a vast knowledge of academic, social/emotional and career resources available to them on the Binghamton University campus
- Start to create a sense of belonging on campus and within the greater Binghamton Community
- Gain a deeper understanding of their career exploration and potential career paths
Registration is capped at 75 students. If more than75 register, we will utilize a waiting list based on when the student registered. Register online.
NOTE:Registration will be open until July 19th, 2024
