Transfers

Being a transfer student myself, I have experienced and understand the dilemmas and stress that come along with being in a new unfamiliar place. On top of trying to make new friends and staying ahead of school work, transfers have the disadvantage of not knowing the “hot” spots of their new town. Usually you’re surrounded by people who have already had the opportunity to experience all the town as to offer and already know the best activities to partake in. It may take a while to adjust, explore, and familiarize yourself with your surrounding environment but with this guide I offer transfer students a short-cut to discovering the town of New Paltz.
