Transfers Helping Transfers, It’s a Beautiful Thing.

The Transfer Ambassador Program, or TAP, pairs current FIU transfer students (Ambassadors) with new transfer students (mentees) to make transitioning to FIU a little easier. Ambassadors offer “just in time” support to new transfers during their first term. Whether it’s helping students navigate campus, find their assigned advisor, or recommend campus resources, ambassadors have the answers! Sure, students can find this information online, but where’s the fun in that? A seasoned pro is what we’re talking about! #PawsUp

Time Commitment

TAP does not require a significant time commitment, and the rewards are invaluable! TAP Ambassadors attend a few hours of training  that includes program information, expectations, and evaluation. TAP is designed to meet the flexible needs of our new students, so many of the ambassador-mentee interactions are facilitated through group messaging.
