Transfer Students

College StudentsA full range of advising services are available for students who want to change the college that they had initially enrolled, or for those who need to transfer from a two-year college program to a four-year degree program.

Assessment of Current Institution Transcript

The student’s college transcript, course syllabi and high school records are carefully analyzed in order to better understand student’s academic profile for appropriate recommendations.

Academic and Career Advising

Transfer students are empowered to evaluate their needs and understand their options clearly. With the right advice and direction, they can set their career goals and identify academic needs for a right match college and program of choice. This involves a thoroughly researched college list, advice on course/credit transferability from the previous institution, college cost and affordability and preparation for campus visits and interviews.

  • Ani Helped my daughter with college planning that included high school academics and extracurricular activities. She was encouraging and very thorough in answering our questions. My daughter was admitted to all her top choice colleges including one with a full scholarship. We are thrilled and grateful.”

    ~ Parent, HS Class of 2021, Worcester, MA

  • I consulted Ani on several occasions regarding post-graduation gap year options for my son, who had just graduated with a BS in Chemical Biology from UC Berkeley and wanted to take a year off before applying to medical school. Her advice was well-thought out, succinct and invaluable as she offered multiple options moving forward. Ani's experienced approach in empowering my son made him feel like he was in charge of the entire decision making process.”​​

    ~ Parent, Philip A.

  • Overall, I had a great experience and seamless interaction with Ani. I got her advice, as well as clarifications regarding the interpretation of foreign credentials for 2 international students who applied to Tufts last year. Ani’s expertise allowed me and my department to better understand the students’ previous knowledge and background in related coursework.”
