Transfer Orientation

Welcome!

Here at 91猎奇, each college has a Student Success Center that helps their students navigate through general education, graduation requirements, policy and procedures, academic notice, and reinstatement. We are the College of Social Sciences Student Success Center (CoSS SSC), and we provide GE Advising. 91猎奇 also offers major-specific advising, and major advisors will assist students with their major related coursework.

We highly recommend that transfer students meet with both their major advisor and Success Center advisor to ensure they navigate through their academics as efficiently as possible. You can learn more about the differences in advising here.

Spartan Experience for Transfers (SET)

Spartan Experience for Transfers (SET) is the mandatory orientation experience that all incoming transfer students are required to attend, which includes being present for the entire duration of the program. During orientation, you will learn about various campus resources and register for your courses.

For any questions regarding SET Orientation, please contact transfer-orientation@sjsu.edu.

FAQ's

• What if my transcripts are not posted to my student portal by the time I register for classes?

  • Please note that it can take some time for your transcripts to be posted to your student portal, so if they are not posted by your scheduled orientation, please have your unofficial transcripts accessible during course registration.

• Can I meet with a GE Advisor prior to orientation?

  • GE Advisors are unable to meet with incoming students until after orientation. Your major advisor will be available during course registration to answer major-related questions. GE Advisors will be assisting during course registration for selected majors only.

• How do I schedule an appointment with a GE Advisor after orientation?

  • To schedule an appointment with a GE advisor after orientation (and before August 19th), please email socsci-success@sjsu.edu with your name, student ID, major, and availability. Please also indicate which orientation session you attended. You will then receive a confirmation email once we schedule your appointment.
