Transfer Scholars Club

Your Peer-to-Peer Transfer Connection

Created in March 2011, the University Transfer Scholars Club aligns with SBCC's mission statement to promote and carry out activities to increase the transfer rate.  We strive to educate our members and the SBCC community about the various paths to transferring to a four-year institution.

The University Transfer Scholars Club offers SBCC students an extracurricular outlet for socializing and networking with fellow transfer students. The club has various activities, such as field trips, social gatherings, and fundraising for scholarships.  Our fundraisers and socials will provide existential support and services that students may need to be successful academically, socially, and financially.

PAST PRE-COVID NETWORKING EVENTS

Bowling at Zodo's  ● Date and Time TBD
 Bring $10 for shoe rentals, we will cover the lanes!
 
Hike ● Date and Time TBD
After several weather-induced cancellations, we will go for that Hike! Bring a friend, and come get some fresh air and exercise with us! Stephen's Park, where the beginning of the Jesusita trail head starts. Club members, let’s plan to meet at Steven's Park, where the beginning of the Jesusita trail head starts.
The hike takes about 2.5 hours round trip, so it still gives you plenty of time to head back and have a fun Friday night.  Bring comfortable walking/running shoes and water. 

Directions to Stevens Park

Beach Day at Ledbetter Beach  ● Date/Time TBD
