Summer Transition Program (STP) offers 2 virtual events and a 3 day early move-in orientation that offers incoming UCSC transfer students intentional support with acclimating to the quarter system and assistance with financial planning, navigating the campus, balancing family responsibilities, and making intentional connections with resources and opportunities.
STP Annual Program Cycle:
- April: outreach to admitted students begins through Admissions
- June: After admitted students submit their statement of intent to register, they are invited to apply for STP
- July: A kick off event with a program overview
- Early - August: Virtual enrollment overview event
