Transfer Bridge Program

What is the EOP Transfer Bridge Program?

bridge students
 
The EOP Transfer Bridge Program (TBP) is an intensive transitional program offered during the summer prior to the beginning of the fall semester to newly admitted EOP students transferring into San Diego State University from community colleges.
 
The purpose of the program is for students to effectively utilize and be aware of the SDSU resources which support their academic advising/counseling during TBP. At the conclusion of the program students should be able to effectively identify and use library support services, demonstrate financial literacy in areas of financial aid and scholarship searches as well as demonstrate the value of peer relations to support their university transition.
 

Why Should I Attend?

The transition from community college to SDSU can be overwhelming. Students who participate in the EOP Transfer Bridge Program are able to get head start from other incoming transfer students. The program provides students with a better understanding of EOP, university requirements, resources and networking opportunities - so that students know exactly what is expected of them as they establish contacts early on in their university experience. Listed below are some of the benefits in participating in the program:

  • Understand EOP and the services provided
  • Attend workshops that focus on academic and social issues
  • Become familiar with the SDSU campus, its resources, and support programs
  • Learn how to utilize library resources
  • Explore the SDSU campus community
  • Network with other EOP transfer students with similar goals
  • Receive support from a mentor during the program
