Bridges to Amherst: A Virtual Transfer and Military-affiliated Open House Series

The Amherst College Office of Admission invites you to a series of virtual events throughout the month of February to learn more about our transfer and military communities and resources, the unique strength of Amherst's open curriculum and the Five College Consortium, and a closer look at the transfer application in detail.

Each week the Office of Admission will host interactive events. You’re welcome to join us for any or all of the sessions; more information about each can be found below. Upon completing the form below, registrants will receive a confirmation email with a Zoom link that will enable you to access each session. Recordings of sessions are not guaranteed.

Our Virtual Community College Transfer and Military Open House programming is designed with prospective community college transfer students and military service members and veterans in mind. High school students enrolled in college courses as part of any dual-enrollment, early graduation or other accelerated completion of secondary school are not eligible to apply to Amherst as transfer students and should apply through the first-year application process.

Questions? If you have any questions regarding the program or registration process, please contact Nick Fritz, Senior Assistant Director of Admission, at nfritz@amherst.edu.
