Live Sessions

Transfer Student/Alumni Panel and Q&A 
Wednesday, October 20, 2021 at 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. 

Students transfer at different times in their lives and for many different reasons. Our panelists will discuss why they chose Humber, the biggest successes and challenges of their transfer journey, tips for success for new and "not so new" students. We will also discuss, from the student perspective, how staff/faculty have or could make the transition to Humber even better.
