One of the many reasons why senior Nicolle Estrella chose to transfer to Mitchell College as a junior was because of its professional connections for students.
“Hospitality and Tourism captured my attention. Mitchell has a great program and offers more classes and learning experiences in this area of study than my other school, connecting students to more real world activities.”
For senior Shayna Gelfond, the seamless transfer experience at Mitchell College lived up to its promise. Before enrolling at Mitchell as a junior, she felt a lot of uncertainty.
“I was so nervous transferring because I didn’t know anyone or the campus or even if I could graduate on time, but Mitchell made it easy. Everything happened stress free!”
