Fifteen Colleges Prepared to Admit On the Spot at Three Events
The College of Southern Maryland (CSM) will host three transfer fairs this month —Sept. 18 at the Prince Frederick Campus, Sept. 19 at the Leonardtown Campus and Sept. 21 at the La Plata Campus. These events are a valuable opportunity for CSM students to meet representatives from a variety of colleges and universities, explore college majors, degree programs and meet with CSM faculty to gather information about planning the next step in their education.
CSM Assistant Director of Transfer Services James Spence Jr. said this fall’s transfer fairs include a new opportunity for students planning to continue their education beyond CSM. “For the first time in the history of the college’s transfer fairs, we’ve extended to the four-year schools the opportunity to conduct instant admissions on those days,” Spence said. “As of today, we have 15 schools that will be accepting students on the spot.”
Currently, the following schools are offering the opportunity for instant admissions at the CSM fairs:
• Bowie State University
• Capitol Technology University
• Coppin State University
• Excelsior College
• Grand Canyon University
• Hampton University
• Notre Dame of Maryland University
• Stevenson University
• Trinity Washington University
• University of Baltimore
• University of the District of Columbia
• University of Mary Washington
• University of Maryland Eastern Shore
• Virginia State University
• Washington Adventist University
Last year, 1,643 CSM students transferred to 221 different four-year institutions in 41 states and the District of Columbia.
Students interested in instant admissions should show up to one of the fairs with a copy of their completed online application and their transcript. The college has more than 60 articulations in place that ease the transition for CSM graduates into their programs.
