[civsa] Transfer Students and Visit Days

[Dikeman, Mathew D [ADM]]

Good Morning, CIVSA!

Background:
At Iowa State University we have historically had two separate open house events, one program for transfer students and a separate program for first year students. We have included both of these students populations in our "daily visit" programs which happen when are not hosting our open house events.

A few questions:

1)      Do you separate these students into separate visit days? If so, what are the pros/cons that you have experienced?

2)      Do you host everybody, any day they want to come? If so, how do you make the experience different for transfer students and first year students.

3)      Do you have separate tour groups or ambassadors for transfer students and firs year students? If so, how are they the same and how are they different (responsibilities, tours, etc.)

Any suggestions or thoughts you have relating to transfer students and their campus visit experience would be helpful.

Best Regards,
