Who can be a Bergen Community College school official for transfer purposes?

I'm starting to look into transferring from Bergen Community College. Is there a specific person I should talk to or a school official who can help guide me through the transfer process?

For your situation at Bergen Community College, the primary individuals who can guide you through the transfer process are academic advisors. These school officials are equipped with the knowledge and resources needed to help students navigate the complexities of the transfer process.

Generally, your school should have a department or office dedicated to student services or academic counseling where these advisors work. It's advisable to schedule a meeting to discuss your plans, potential target schools, how your current credits will transfer, and what additional steps you might need to take.

Another helpful resource might be professors in your field of study, who can provide guidance from an academic perspective. Although they might not have the same breadth of transfer process knowledge as official academic advisors, they certainly can add valuable insight about career prospects and the reputability of programs at your potential transfer schools.

Finally, if Bergen Community College has a Transfer Counselor or Transfer Center, those would be extremely useful resources for your situation. These individuals or offices specialize in helping students like you who are looking to transfer to another institution. They can help with everything from identifying target schools, discussing transfer agreements, to managing timelines and paperwork.

Wherever you end up seeking guidance, it's great that you're thinking ahead and seeking advice. Please make sure to also do your own research about prospective schools' transfer policies so you can make an informed decision. Good luck!
