Transfer Students
We recognize the unique experience of transfer students at SIU. While transfer students are not necessarily also non-traditional students, we work to provide resources, programming, and support for this population as well.
National Transfer Student Week
National Transfer Student Week is held annually in the third week of October. The 2025 dates are October 20-24. All events are free and open to SIU transfer students and their guests. Come and go as your schedule allows.
