Thomas Edison State University (TESU) has been recognized for its commitment to supporting transfer students, earning a spot on the Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) 2024 Transfer Honor Roll. This prestigious honor is awarded to institutions that demonstrate a strong commitment to creating a supportive and inclusive environment for transfer students.
PTK, the premier honor society for two-year college students, recognizes colleges and universities that have demonstrated a strong commitment to supporting transfer students. The Transfer Honor Roll is based on the results of a survey that evaluates institutions on their transfer friendliness, including factors such as scholarship and financial aid, admissions outreach, and student engagement.
TESU’s inclusion on the Transfer Honor Roll is a testament to the university’s long-standing commitment to providing a seamless transfer experience for students. With a strong focus on adult learners, TESU has developed a range of programs and services designed to support transfer students, including flexible online courses, generous transfer credit policies, and personalized academic advising.
“We are thrilled to be recognized by Phi Theta Kappa for our efforts to support transfer students,” said Dr. Merodie Hancock, President of TESU. “At TESU, we understand the importance of providing a supportive and inclusive environment for all students, and we are committed to helping transfer students achieve their academic goals.”
TESU’s recognition on the Transfer Honor Roll is particularly notable given the university’s strong track record of serving adult learners. With a student body comprised largely of working adults, TESU has developed a range of programs and services designed to meet the unique needs of this population. From flexible online courses to prior learning assessment, TESU is dedicated to providing a supportive and inclusive environment that helps adult learners succeed.
The recognition by PTK is a testament to TESU’s commitment to supporting transfer students and providing a high-quality education that prepares students for success. As a leader in adult education, TESU is proud to be recognized for its efforts to support transfer students and looks forward to continuing to provide a supportive and inclusive environment for all students.
