The Transfer2Transfer (T2T) program matches new transfer students with continuing transfer students. Mentor Collective, UNCG platform partner, handles the matching process, using the matching survey submitted by peer mentors and mentees. Matches are based on the following criteria:
- Mentee’s top matching criterion
