Description of the video:

1
00:00:00,709 --> 00:00:04,004
Hello everybody.
I hope you're having a great day.

2
00:00:04,129 --> 00:00:06,089
My name is Joe Wright.
I'm a Senior Assistant Director

3
00:00:06,089 --> 00:00:09,134
of undergraduate admissions
here at IU Bloomington.

4
00:00:09,134 --> 00:00:14,305
And this is a recording for our
virtual admitted student presentation.

5
00:00:14,305 --> 00:00:17,684
So, that way you,
as a virtually admitted student,

6
00:00:18,143 --> 00:00:20,937
have the opportunity to hear a little bit
of additional information

7
00:00:20,937 --> 00:00:25,025
about our campus and perhaps assist you
in your decision making process

8
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:29,112
or prepare you for your attendance here,
just to get used to the campus

9
00:00:29,112 --> 00:00:30,697
a little bit more.

10
00:00:30,697 --> 00:00:36,286
So, with that, I'm going to start
and share a PowerPoint presentation.

11
00:00:36,786 --> 00:00:39,372
And we'll run through that.

12
00:00:39,372 --> 00:00:42,459
And I hope that you have

13
00:00:43,418 --> 00:00:45,962
a good experience with this and

14
00:00:45,962 --> 00:00:46,588
that it is helpful.

15
00:00:46,588 --> 00:00:50,300
So, give me one second
to turn off the camera,

16
00:00:53,595 --> 00:00:57,182
start the presentation,

17
00:01:00,143 --> 00:01:03,146
and then

18
00:01:04,981 --> 00:01:07,901
begin to share

19
00:01:07,901 --> 00:01:10,862
the screen.

20
00:01:10,862 --> 00:01:12,405
We're all set up now.

21
00:01:12,405 --> 00:01:14,616
So, hey, first things first,

22
00:01:14,616 --> 00:01:16,951
obviously, congratulations.

23
00:01:16,951 --> 00:01:18,036
Huge accomplishment.

24
00:01:18,036 --> 00:01:21,706
We appreciate your application,
and we are honored to offer you admission.

25
00:01:21,998 --> 00:01:24,959
So, if you're viewing this,
this is only going out to admitted

26
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,962
students.

27
00:01:28,505 --> 00:01:31,508
So, congratulations to you.

28
00:01:34,010 --> 00:01:35,470
So, obviously, as I stated earlier,

29
00:01:35,470 --> 00:01:38,807
this is the virtual admitted
students presentation.

30
00:01:38,807 --> 00:01:41,851
So, let's get started.

31
00:01:46,272 --> 00:01:49,651
So, the IU Admissions office for transfer

32
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:53,822
has a staff of five.
There are three of us that are forward-facing.

33
00:01:54,197 --> 00:01:56,991
And obviously you see me in the middle there.

34
00:01:56,991 --> 00:02:00,036
But Kelly Waggoner is the Senior Associate Director

35
00:02:00,036 --> 00:02:03,248
in charge of the organization.

36
00:02:03,373 --> 00:02:06,376
And then Brynn Michaels is our

37
00:02:07,460 --> 00:02:08,753
Assistant Director.

38
00:02:08,753 --> 00:02:12,882
She focuses primarily on out-of-state
with some in-state stuff here.

39
00:02:12,882 --> 00:02:17,053
And then I focus primarily on in-state stuff.

40
00:02:18,012 --> 00:02:19,305
And then you're welcome to contact

41
00:02:19,305 --> 00:02:22,308
any one of the three of us
if you have any questions about anything.

42
00:02:22,308 --> 00:02:25,311
We all three help and fill in for each other.

43
00:02:28,857 --> 00:02:30,817
So, welcome to campus.

44
00:02:30,817 --> 00:02:32,735
This is our Sample Gates.

45
00:02:32,735 --> 00:02:36,156
It's one of the more iconic
structures here on campus.

46
00:02:36,739 --> 00:02:42,495
And, it's a great way to take a moment
to talk about our campus

47
00:02:42,495 --> 00:02:45,707
and how we in the transfer office
understand that the visit

48
00:02:47,167 --> 00:02:49,002
here is important

49
00:02:49,002 --> 00:02:53,590
as your transfer journey is unique and special

50
00:02:53,590 --> 00:02:54,507
just to you.

51
00:02:54,507 --> 00:02:58,469
We know some of you have been
to a couple of different schools.

52
00:02:58,469 --> 00:03:02,348
Some of you may have only been to one.
Some of you are changing majors.

53
00:03:02,724 --> 00:03:06,102
Some of you are coming back to school after a

54
00:03:06,436 --> 00:03:08,229
slight absence.

55
00:03:08,229 --> 00:03:10,857
So, everybody's journey is unique and

56
00:03:10,857 --> 00:03:11,733
that's why we're here.

57
00:03:11,733 --> 00:03:15,778
We're here to help you through
that process and help guide you

58
00:03:16,446 --> 00:03:19,574
to the degree completion that you seek.

59
00:03:20,617 --> 00:03:23,536
So, we want to help make sure that you
have the best information possible.

60
00:03:23,536 --> 00:03:26,497
And that is what we are doing here.

61
00:03:30,335 --> 00:03:31,085
So, let's talk a little bit

62
00:03:31,085 --> 00:03:34,088
about academics real quick.
Just to let you know,

63
00:03:34,172 --> 00:03:38,051
so, we have 12 undergraduate schools
with over 200 majors.

64
00:03:38,843 --> 00:03:41,888
And in addition to your typical learning experience

65
00:03:41,888 --> 00:03:46,309
that you have—excuse me—
we have hands-on experiences.

66
00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:49,270
We refer to it as experiential learning.

67
00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:52,899
You can do research, service-based learning,

68
00:03:53,858 --> 00:03:56,152
volunteering type stuff.

69
00:03:56,152 --> 00:03:59,864
And then we also have 380+ study abroad programs.

70
00:04:00,615 --> 00:04:03,076
The study abroad programs provide you with that

71
00:04:03,076 --> 00:04:06,079
hands-on experience as well.

72
00:04:06,287 --> 00:04:10,041
And we have one of the leading study

73
00:04:10,041 --> 00:04:13,044
abroad programs with

74
00:04:13,419 --> 00:04:16,422
short and long term

75
00:04:16,506 --> 00:04:19,676
class opportunities, as well as English-speaking

76
00:04:19,676 --> 00:04:22,679
and native language programs.

77
00:04:23,054 --> 00:04:25,807
We offer tutoring services here

78
00:04:25,807 --> 00:04:28,518
on the campus,

79
00:04:28,518 --> 00:04:31,354
so you can get tutoring services from staff.

80
00:04:33,356 --> 00:04:34,148

81
00:04:34,148 --> 00:04:37,986
Or you could get it from peers
kind of set up in different ways.

82
00:04:37,986 --> 00:04:42,365
We also have Academic Support Centers
or Student Academic Centers.

83
00:04:42,365 --> 00:04:45,618
The Academic Support Centers are
in the residence halls

84
00:04:46,452 --> 00:04:49,163
and primarily focus on that tutoring.

85
00:04:49,163 --> 00:04:52,250
And then the Student Academic Center

86
00:04:52,250 --> 00:04:55,545
is basically related
to that of being the student.

87
00:04:55,545 --> 00:04:59,924
They are helpful with coaching and assisting

88
00:04:59,924 --> 00:05:02,969
you with how to be the
best version of yourself

89
00:05:03,219 --> 00:05:07,056
in the academic standings.
Writing Tutorial Services is

90
00:05:07,181 --> 00:05:08,391
exactly what it sounds like.

91
00:05:08,391 --> 00:05:12,103
You take papers to them,
they will review, and then they will,

92
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:15,106
give you some guidance as to how you may

93
00:05:15,106 --> 00:05:18,067
make improvements on them.

94
00:05:19,694 --> 00:05:21,029
Here at IU Bloomington we know that

95
00:05:21,029 --> 00:05:25,158
you are not only here to get a degree,
but that degree is to help you get a career.

96
00:05:25,450 --> 00:05:29,620
And as a result, we have ten
specialized undergraduate career centers

97
00:05:29,620 --> 00:05:34,459
that basically assigned to the schools
that we have around campus

98
00:05:34,459 --> 00:05:36,002
and the ones that you're
going to get your degree in.

99
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:38,921
Those individual

100
00:05:38,921 --> 00:05:43,217
schools and their undergraduate
career centers help you.

101
00:05:43,217 --> 00:05:45,345
And they're very specific
and very knowledgeable

102
00:05:45,345 --> 00:05:48,014
about the particular career paths
that they represent.

103
00:05:48,014 --> 00:05:49,932
So, instead of going somewhere

104
00:05:49,932 --> 00:05:53,102
and then meeting with somebody
that had a business student the hour

105
00:05:53,102 --> 00:05:57,231
before your appointment, an education
student an hour after your appointment,

106
00:05:57,273 --> 00:06:00,360
they are specialized with your particular topic

107
00:06:01,486 --> 00:06:02,236
on campus.

108
00:06:02,236 --> 00:06:05,448
They cumulatively hold over 450 different

109
00:06:05,448 --> 00:06:08,618
career workshops each year to help you as a student.

110
00:06:09,494 --> 00:06:12,872
We have internship opportunities that can assist you

111
00:06:12,872 --> 00:06:16,334
with that experiential learning,
confirming that that's the career

112
00:06:16,334 --> 00:06:19,420
path that you're interested in,
as well as giving you hands-on training.

113
00:06:19,420 --> 00:06:21,672
So, that way you are better at that

114
00:06:21,672 --> 00:06:25,635
by the time you graduate and get ready
to enter into the workforce.

115
00:06:26,886 --> 00:06:28,012
We also have one of the largest

116
00:06:28,012 --> 00:06:32,141
living alumni networks with well over

117
00:06:33,184 --> 00:06:35,353
790,000 alumni worldwide,

118
00:06:35,353 --> 00:06:39,065
and last year 95% of our graduates
accepted full-time

119
00:06:39,065 --> 00:06:42,610
employment or continued their
education upon graduation.

120
00:06:42,610 --> 00:06:45,613
So, our career services, we feel, are

121
00:06:45,613 --> 00:06:48,616
very, very successful in what they do.

122
00:06:48,616 --> 00:06:50,827
I would like to add one thing here,
and that is don't

123
00:06:50,827 --> 00:06:52,995
wait to start the career services.

124
00:06:52,995 --> 00:06:58,209
Please be sure that you start them
and meet with your advisor,

125
00:06:58,209 --> 00:07:00,503
your academic advisor,
to talk about the potential

126
00:07:00,503 --> 00:07:03,548
and the possibilities of the career
services and what they can do for you

127
00:07:04,090 --> 00:07:05,383
as soon as you get here.

128
00:07:05,383 --> 00:07:08,052
So, don't just wait 'til you're about
to graduate and have them help

129
00:07:08,052 --> 00:07:11,055
you try to find a job.

130
00:07:12,682 --> 00:07:13,099
Your health,

131
00:07:13,099 --> 00:07:16,185
wellness, and safety are important
and our priority to us here as well.

132
00:07:17,228 --> 00:07:18,896
Just know that

133
00:07:18,896 --> 00:07:22,191
we have multiple ways to stay healthy.

134
00:07:22,191 --> 00:07:25,194
We have a couple of different
sports and rec centers.

135
00:07:25,987 --> 00:07:28,990
And within those centers we have

136
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:31,993
club and intramural sports
that you can participate in.

137
00:07:32,326 --> 00:07:34,912
We have a Student Health Center
in the center of campus.

138
00:07:34,912 --> 00:07:38,082
Help you if you have a cold
or some other issue going on

139
00:07:38,416 --> 00:07:41,377
to not have you

140
00:07:42,712 --> 00:07:44,255
have to venture off campus

141
00:07:44,255 --> 00:07:47,258
too far to get those types of assistance.

142
00:07:47,341 --> 00:07:49,218
We have Counseling and Psychological Services

143
00:07:49,218 --> 00:07:53,306
that you can set up and schedule
on a regular basis or an as-needed basis.

144
00:07:53,306 --> 00:07:54,724
But then we also have TimelyCare.

145
00:07:54,724 --> 00:07:57,727
TimelyCare is a Zoom-based,

146
00:07:57,852 --> 00:08:01,481
urgent assistance.
They're staffed 24/7

147
00:08:01,981 --> 00:08:05,526
and they're part of our Culture of Care
here on campus to make sure

148
00:08:05,526 --> 00:08:07,236
that you have the assistance that you need.

149
00:08:08,321 --> 00:08:09,405
From a safety perspective.

150
00:08:09,405 --> 00:08:15,036
We have IU Ride, which provides rides
in the evenings and late night hours.

151
00:08:15,036 --> 00:08:16,913
We have our own police department

152
00:08:16,913 --> 00:08:19,373
and the campus is built out
with a BlueLight system.

153
00:08:19,373 --> 00:08:21,459
So, if you do need assistance
while you're on campus,

154
00:08:21,459 --> 00:08:24,754
you can activate the BlueLight
and assistance will come to you.

155
00:08:28,966 --> 00:08:31,177
Student life is a large portion

156
00:08:31,177 --> 00:08:34,180
of being a college student,
regardless of where you go.

157
00:08:34,722 --> 00:08:37,850
And IU embraces that as well because
we know that if you're a successful

158
00:08:39,018 --> 00:08:41,020
student in the social aspect,

159
00:08:41,020 --> 00:08:44,023
you're also going to be

160
00:08:44,315 --> 00:08:47,318
successful in your academic side of things.

161
00:08:48,236 --> 00:08:51,989
So, student life organizations here are

162
00:08:53,115 --> 00:08:56,661
very popular and very large
with a lot of different options.

163
00:08:57,411 --> 00:09:01,165
I encourage you to go to the
IU Bloomington events calendar

164
00:09:01,165 --> 00:09:04,210
just to take a look at all
the different things that are taking place

165
00:09:04,210 --> 00:09:07,213
at any given point in time,
just so you can see that long list.

166
00:09:07,588 --> 00:09:10,800
But, in summary, we have well over 750

167
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,387
student-led organizations and clubs.

168
00:09:14,845 --> 00:09:18,641
These clubs can be things
that can help bolster your resume,

169
00:09:18,641 --> 00:09:20,560
or that could be things that are just for fun.

170
00:09:21,811 --> 00:09:22,937
We encourage you to come out

171
00:09:22,937 --> 00:09:26,691
during the enrollment fairs at the start
of the spring and fall semester

172
00:09:26,691 --> 00:09:27,733
so that you can talk

173
00:09:27,733 --> 00:09:31,487
to the club organizers about what they do
and see if it's a good fit for you.

174
00:09:31,737 --> 00:09:34,740
We have well over 60 different
fraternities and sororities.

175
00:09:35,491 --> 00:09:38,578
We are a Division I NCAA school,

176
00:09:38,578 --> 00:09:42,915
so we have 24 Division I teams
in men's and women's sports.

177
00:09:43,416 --> 00:09:47,545
With your student ID, you get into
22 of those sports for free.

178
00:09:47,545 --> 00:09:51,799
It's only men's basketball and men's football
that you have to buy tickets for.

179
00:09:53,175 --> 00:09:56,262
We are a liberal arts institution,
so we have world-class culture

180
00:09:56,262 --> 00:09:57,972
and arts here on campus.

181
00:09:57,972 --> 00:10:03,603
And that means that we have well over 1,500
performances on our campus each year.

182
00:10:04,186 --> 00:10:07,690
And those span the range from professional organizations

183
00:10:07,690 --> 00:10:10,693
or Off-Broadway plays that come into the auditorium

184
00:10:10,943 --> 00:10:15,865
and bring their semis in and stay for a week,
all the way down to recitals

185
00:10:15,865 --> 00:10:18,993
that students have to put on for their particular

186
00:10:19,702 --> 00:10:21,787
majors and classes that they're taking.

187
00:10:21,787 --> 00:10:24,665
So, again, goes back to that events calendar.

188
00:10:24,665 --> 00:10:26,917
And there are always a number of things to do.

189
00:10:28,169 --> 00:10:29,754
Also listed on the events calendar,

190
00:10:29,754 --> 00:10:33,174
you'll see that our culture centers have activities.

191
00:10:33,174 --> 00:10:36,510
Now, here at IU Bloomington we have seven
culture centers and institutes that support

192
00:10:36,510 --> 00:10:39,805
and educate the entire student body
on the cultures that they represent.

193
00:10:40,848 --> 00:10:43,184
And they do that largely through

194
00:10:43,184 --> 00:10:46,187
activities, events, and things that

195
00:10:46,854 --> 00:10:49,690
just help keep you active and interested

196
00:10:49,690 --> 00:10:52,693
in the learning process here on campus.

197
00:10:53,027 --> 00:10:55,321
So, the list of culture centers that we have

198
00:10:55,321 --> 00:10:58,324
here are the African American Art Institute,

199
00:10:58,449 --> 00:11:02,953
the Asian Culture Center, the First Nations Culture Center,
Jewish Culture Center,

200
00:11:03,579 --> 00:11:08,084
La Casa Latino Culture Center,
the LGBTQ+ Culture Center,

201
00:11:08,709 --> 00:11:11,712
and the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center.

202
00:11:16,717 --> 00:11:19,136
Staying connected is obviously still important to us,

203
00:11:19,136 --> 00:11:23,557
and one of the clubs that I spoke
about earlier is called the

204
00:11:24,016 --> 00:11:25,226
Transfer Student Advisory Board.

205
00:11:25,226 --> 00:11:29,814
It's an opportunity for transfer students
to get together, to work together

206
00:11:29,814 --> 00:11:34,485
within their community,
become more informed about the university

207
00:11:34,485 --> 00:11:38,406
and how they can make everything special
for transfer students,

208
00:11:38,406 --> 00:11:42,284
because we know, again, it's a
unique journey and a unique situation

209
00:11:42,284 --> 00:11:44,912
for every single one of you.
And this is a great opportunity

210
00:11:44,912 --> 00:11:46,997
to connect with other people that are having,

211
00:11:48,708 --> 00:11:51,711
a similar experience.

212
00:11:55,381 --> 00:11:56,006
We also

213
00:11:56,006 --> 00:12:00,136
have a chapter of Tau Sigma.
It's a national academic honor society

214
00:12:00,219 --> 00:12:05,015
for transfer students,
and that is limited to students

215
00:12:05,015 --> 00:12:08,936
that are able to attain a 3.5 GPA or higher

216
00:12:08,936 --> 00:12:12,857
during the first semester at
the campus that they attend.

217
00:12:12,982 --> 00:12:16,068
So for us, that would be your first semester here,

218
00:12:16,777 --> 00:12:19,780
and I encourage you to go to
the national website or the IU Bloomington

219
00:12:19,864 --> 00:12:23,075
Tau Sigma website for more information
about that opportunity.

220
00:12:23,534 --> 00:12:27,121
And if you achieve those academic standards,

221
00:12:27,121 --> 00:12:30,458
you can expect to get an invitation to join.

222
00:12:35,004 --> 00:12:37,089
We know that a large number of transfer

223
00:12:37,089 --> 00:12:40,801
students coming in are from the
veteran or military background.

224
00:12:40,885 --> 00:12:44,889
So, whether you are a dependent
of a veteran or whether you're an actual

225
00:12:45,681 --> 00:12:50,686
serving or recently discharged
military student yourself,

226
00:12:51,103 --> 00:12:53,647
you can contact our Veterans Affairs

227
00:12:53,647 --> 00:12:58,611
office to help you through that process of
how you may be able to use your GI Bill,

228
00:12:58,611 --> 00:13:01,947
or what other services that they can assist you with.

229
00:13:06,577 --> 00:13:09,538
Now, let's talk a little bit about costs.

230
00:13:09,538 --> 00:13:14,001
There is a breakdown between in-state
Indiana residents and nonresidents.

231
00:13:14,001 --> 00:13:19,048
You can see here this is the
initial price of attending here

232
00:13:19,048 --> 00:13:22,718
for the 2024–2025 academic year.

233
00:13:24,136 --> 00:13:27,056
With more than 15 credit hours transferring in,

234
00:13:27,056 --> 00:13:31,185
you do not have to live on campus,
so you're able to control your costs

235
00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:34,313
a little bit by deciding
whether you want to stay on campus,

236
00:13:34,313 --> 00:13:38,692
or whether you want to try to go outside
of campus housing and reduce that cost some.

237
00:13:38,943 --> 00:13:42,488
You're welcome to look around and
see if that's a possibility for you.

238
00:13:43,531 --> 00:13:46,242
The other things that are on this list—

239
00:13:46,242 --> 00:13:49,620
books and supplies, transportation,
personal expenses—those are all

240
00:13:50,830 --> 00:13:52,623
ancillary expenses

241
00:13:52,623 --> 00:13:56,544
to the education and ones that
you might be able to control.

242
00:13:56,544 --> 00:13:59,755
Perhaps not as much as books and supplies,
but definitely with transportation

243
00:13:59,755 --> 00:14:01,131
and personal expenses and the like.

244
00:14:01,131 --> 00:14:04,426
So, there's a little bit of leeway
in some of these numbers, but,

245
00:14:04,969 --> 00:14:07,012
just know that this is your starting point.

246
00:14:12,226 --> 00:14:13,352
So, in 2023,

247
00:14:13,352 --> 00:14:16,981
83% of students did receive some form of financial aid

248
00:14:17,356 --> 00:14:22,486
and 61% of students did graduate
debt-free from Indiana University.

249
00:14:22,528 --> 00:14:26,866
So. Here we have an office called Student Central.

250
00:14:27,449 --> 00:14:30,160
Student central is

251
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,872
the business office for being a student,
for lack of a better term.

252
00:14:32,872 --> 00:14:37,585
It is the office that has the Bursar,
the Registrar, Financial Aid.

253
00:14:37,585 --> 00:14:41,171
They answer questions for scholarships,
those types of things.

254
00:14:41,171 --> 00:14:44,174
And they can assist you in

255
00:14:44,174 --> 00:14:46,927
what that looks like for you in terms of

256
00:14:46,927 --> 00:14:51,181
trying to reduce that initial
base cost of attending.

257
00:14:53,559 --> 00:14:54,685
Depending on what

258
00:14:54,685 --> 00:14:57,938
your results are for your FAFSA,
you may qualify for loans.

259
00:14:57,938 --> 00:15:00,941
You may qualify for work-study,
you may be eligible for grants.

260
00:15:01,775 --> 00:15:05,195
Basically, Student Central is the office
that can help you understand

261
00:15:05,195 --> 00:15:08,240
where you land in all of that,
and I encourage you to reach out to them.

262
00:15:08,908 --> 00:15:10,409
You can also check out MoneySmarts.

263
00:15:10,409 --> 00:15:14,830
It's a website that IU developed
to help college students

264
00:15:15,205 --> 00:15:19,001
not only while they're in school,
but also after school,

265
00:15:19,251 --> 00:15:20,961
to make good financial decisions.

266
00:15:27,676 --> 00:15:30,638
So, what are your next steps?

267
00:15:31,388 --> 00:15:34,058
Your next steps to enroll are to complete

268
00:15:34,058 --> 00:15:37,061
your IU computing an email account
if you've not already done so.

269
00:15:37,061 --> 00:15:38,979
This is different than your Portal account.

270
00:15:38,979 --> 00:15:41,982
Portal account is what you used for the application.

271
00:15:42,441 --> 00:15:45,903
Once you were offered admission,
you were given an IU email address

272
00:15:45,903 --> 00:15:49,031
and the ability to set up the IU email account.

273
00:15:50,324 --> 00:15:54,995
Make sure again that you submit your FAFSA,
add us to your list of FAFSA

274
00:15:54,995 --> 00:15:59,291
if you've already submitted it
just so that we can get that information

275
00:15:59,375 --> 00:16:03,420
and see what you're eligible for.
We do need some type of notification

276
00:16:03,420 --> 00:16:07,091
to be able to send you a reply back
on cost of attendance.

277
00:16:07,091 --> 00:16:11,595
So, as soon as you get the opportunity
to add us, we'll be notified,

278
00:16:11,595 --> 00:16:13,597
and then we'll try to turn that back around

279
00:16:13,597 --> 00:16:15,516
and get you a cost of attendance estimate.

280
00:16:17,101 --> 00:16:18,268
And if you plan on attending,

281
00:16:18,268 --> 00:16:21,438
make sure you do your intent to enroll
and reserve your space.

282
00:16:22,398 --> 00:16:25,275
Once that is done, you'll start getting emails to your IU

283
00:16:25,275 --> 00:16:28,237
email account with all the different offices on campus.

284
00:16:28,696 --> 00:16:31,156
One of those will be for New Student Orientation.

285
00:16:31,156 --> 00:16:36,704
New Student Orientation
for transfer students is virtual,

286
00:16:36,787 --> 00:16:42,918
so you'll be able to do that
with an online learning application.

287
00:16:42,918 --> 00:16:47,172
And then once you reach a certain level,
you will be scheduled

288
00:16:47,172 --> 00:16:50,759
for a meeting with an advisor
and you can schedule for your classes.

289
00:16:51,969 --> 00:16:55,347
Please do not forget to send in
your final official transcripts

290
00:16:55,347 --> 00:16:57,141
from your current colleges.

291
00:16:57,141 --> 00:16:59,560
We need to see what your final grades were

292
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,563
and review those final credits

293
00:17:02,563 --> 00:17:05,774
to see what transfer credits
may come in through those articulations.

294
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,527
And then just make a determination about your housing.

295
00:17:09,611 --> 00:17:10,029
As I said before,

296
00:17:10,029 --> 00:17:13,282
as transfer students, once you have
above 15 credit hours,

297
00:17:13,782 --> 00:17:16,452
then you are not required to live on campus.

298
00:17:16,452 --> 00:17:19,538
You can live off campus if you want,
and I encourage you to investigate

299
00:17:19,538 --> 00:17:22,583
both options for on- and off-campus
housing to find out what works

300
00:17:22,583 --> 00:17:25,586
best for you.

301
00:17:26,962 --> 00:17:29,256
So, with that, thank you very much for your time.

302
00:17:29,256 --> 00:17:31,467
This is our contact information.

303
00:17:31,467 --> 00:17:34,303
A lot of times general questions

304
00:17:34,303 --> 00:17:36,930
can be answered by the call center
that you see here.

305
00:17:36,930 --> 00:17:38,766
That's their email address,

306
00:17:38,766 --> 00:17:43,395
or you can call them at 812-855-0661.

307
00:17:44,229 --> 00:17:47,524
And they'll be able to answer questions
like has my transcript arrived yet

308
00:17:47,691 --> 00:17:50,694
or what's the status of my application,
those types of things.

309
00:17:51,361 --> 00:17:53,238
And then you can also

310
00:17:53,238 --> 00:17:56,241
set up a transfer visit.

311
00:17:56,325 --> 00:17:59,828
We have a number of different
opportunities for you to do a campus visit

312
00:17:59,828 --> 00:18:02,873
both in-person and in Zoom,

313
00:18:02,873 --> 00:18:05,501
and that web page is listed there.

314
00:18:05,501 --> 00:18:07,753
So, with that, again,

315
00:18:07,753 --> 00:18:11,590
we appreciate your taking time
to view this video.

316
00:18:11,590 --> 00:18:14,593
We wish you the best in your
academic and personal journey.

317
00:18:14,885 --> 00:18:20,390
And please do feel free to contact us
if you have any additional questions.

318
00:18:21,517 --> 00:18:22,601
With that,

319
00:18:22,601 --> 00:18:25,604
I wish you the best and
thank you very much for your time.

320
00:18:25,687 --> 00:18:26,313
Have a good day.
