With more than 100 different majors at Virginia Tech, deciding what area to study can be a difficult decision for students. The Majors and Minors Fair, hosted by Academic Advising Initiatives and the Undergraduate Student Senate, can help students learn more about the university’s programs to find the best fit or even to explore a second major.
The National Institute for the Study of Transfer Students (NISTS) has declared the third week of October as National Transfer Student Week. This week is dedicated to the celebration of transfer students and the professionals who support them. Here at Virginia Tech we understand the value that transfer students bring to the Hokie community. We are excited to participate in recognizing those students who became Hokies via the transfer process.
