- Submit the Academic Preference Survey - Due by Wednesday, May 29: The Academic Preference Survey (found on your deposited checklist), must be submitted in advance. Your academic advisor will need this information to craft your fall schedule.

Yes, although we will have optional events throughout the day that are beneficial to set you up for success in your first semester.
No, registration day is only available in person. The advising process requires review of documents, including transcripts, the academic preference survey, and other factors (AP credits, etc.) which is best completed in person. But, don't worry! If you cannot attend either of these events, you will still be able to register in person when you arrive in August for orientation.
No, it is not required to attend to register for the fall semester. If you cannot attend, you will still be able to register for classes this fall during your First Engagements orientation experience. This event simply gives you an opportunity to register in advance!
Do not stress about getting into classes! The benefit of a small school like Transy is that most entry-level courses for first year students have plenty of room across disciplines. Classes are also often offered during multiple terms each year.
Unfortunately, no. Advising sessions are available only to incoming students and their academic advisor. Each session will last approximately 20 minutes. Parents may wait in any of the available areas of the William T. Young Campus Center while their student is in their advising session.
At this event, you will only be registering for the fall term. However, at Transy, you will experience three terms each year: fall term, winter term and May term. Fall and winter term are each 14 weeks long and May term is one month long. You will take approx. 4 classes in fall, 4 in winter, and 1 in May Term. (This is called the 4-4-1 system.)
