Transfer Student Tips

Welcome

Commonwealth College would like to welcome you as a ComCol and University of Massachusetts Amherst student. Please use our website as a helpful resource as you transition into the University and the Commonwealth College community.

Advising Support

To facilitate your transition to the University and Commonwealth College, we have several fulltime and part-time advisors available to assist you. ComCol advisors are listed on our "Contacts" page (see link in header bar above).

We also have several current Commonwealth College transfer students who are happy to share their own insights and advice. Transfer student advisors are listed below. Feel free to email any transfer advisor any questions or concerns you may have.

Peer Advisors

	Dan Guarracino Class of 2010 Major: Psychology; Sociology Minor Hometown: Rockland, MA Transferred from: Brandeis University; UMass Boston Advice to incoming transfer students: Don’t be afraid to get involved! dguarrac@student.umass.edu
	Molly O'Grady Class of 2010 Major: Political Science; Judaic Studies Hometown: Savoy, MA Transferred from: Johns Hopkins University Advice to other incoming transfer students: Ask a lot questions! Since we don't come in as first-years, a lot of people assume we know everything, and we certainly don't--so ask! It makes everything much more manageable. mlogrady@student.umass.edu or outreach@comcol.umass.edu
