Emporia State Transfer Black and Gold Visit

Transfer Black + Gold Visits are ESU's premier visit experience.

A great way to start discovering ESU!

Connect with campus and community partners to learn more about Emporia State University resources tailored to your needs as an ESU transfer student!

Throughout the day, you'll get all the need-to-know information about transferring to ESU:

  • Talk with representatives from off-campus housing options, Emporia financial institutions, local utilities, ESU financial aid, ESU student wellness and more for the full picture of life in the Hornet Nation.
  • Take a personalized campus tour focusing on your field of study and meet with academic advisors to get an in-depth look at how your classes transfer and your future degree path.
  • Hear from current ESU students who transferred in about their experience and tips for being successful as an ESU transfer student.
  • And optional, but totally worth it, stick around to enjoy the Emporia First Friday Art Walk and/or ESU Theatre's Homecoming production of "She Loves Me" for a taste of the Hornet community.

We can't wait to see you on campus!
