Welcome to SUNY Cortland

Transferring to a new college can be tricky. After attending a Transfer Transition Seminar this summer you will have received many of the tools needed to help with your transition. However, I'm sure you'll still have plenty of questions. I'm here to help, so don't hesitate to call or email me about anything that you are unsure about.
