Transfer students finally have a support group just for them. There will be regular meetings, mentorship, and workshops so membership in the club will be a huge asset to all transfer students. The TSA web site will soon have a message board so that transfer students can connect with each other without having to go to meetings (which can be difficult for some transfer students). If you are interested in joining the TSA, contact the club at transferclub@uci.edu.
