Hey! I have been reading through this thread and it has made me want to join this site and get involved.
Will someone chance me?

@Salmanthgr8 wait are you sure there is a workshop for ADMITTED transfer students? Just wanted to check because it seems it is mostly for prospective transfer students. Definitely hoping there is one for admitted students though haha
Also for the STOMP conference, it says to register by April 22nd. So doesn’t that mean we should definitely find out at least a few days before then? I think decisions will come out on the 17th.
Guys, STOMP has nothing to do with us, it’s for CC students considering transferring, as in, those applying for next year, not this Fall. There is no relation between stomp’s date and admissions date for us.
Guys,
Calm down people. Don’t clutch at straws and draw random conclusions. I know it is a stressful time, but we will get through it.
Fullload is right. STOMP is for future applicants.
I just saw that it was for past transfer students to help future transfer students. I am unclear whether or not it is for those of us transferring now or future transfers.
There was a Ucla rep at my cc earlier today. I’m pretty sure she stated that STOMP is designed for newly admitted students to learn more about the transferring process.
@award344 I have visited one of them, I think it was the Gardenia or the Hedrick, I confuse all the names, but I know it was the deluxe type, double. It was really nice.
Under “Session One” there is a workshop titled “Newly Admitted Students.”
So, it does appear that the STOMP Conference can be useful for newly admitted transfer students to attend. It’s also taking place on the 24th, so it can be assumed that admissions decisions will have come out beforehand, or on that day. I’ve registered to attend, and plan on going if I am accepted so that I can check out the school and make sure that it is the right fit for me.
The STOMP conference is for everyone… Not just next years applicants… There is a workshop for newly admitted students. Just go to the link gdkane posted and try signing up
