Chipola College SSS Hosts 2025 Transfer Day

Chipola College Student Support Services and TRIO Society hosted a Chipola College Transfer Day 2025, bringing together university representatives, faculty, staff, and students to explore transfer opportunities and academic pathways. The event provided Chipola students with valuable information about continuing their education at four-year institutions.

Universities in Attendance:  Albany State University, ABAC (Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College, Baptist University of Florida, Chipola College (School of Business & Education, Enrollment Services), Florida A&M University, Florida State University (Panama City Campus), Thomas University, University of Florida (Milton Campus), University of South Florida, and University of West Florida.

University representatives praised Chipola College for its outstanding hospitality and commitment to student success. Joshua Powell, Office of Admissions, Thomas University, shared: “I have attended the transfer fair for a few years now, and to say the staff treats the representatives from the colleges very nicely would be a catastrophic understatement. Each and every time I’ve been there, the staff goes well above and beyond to accommodate everyone in attendance. Chipola College is a class act and has set the foundation for others to follow.”

Dallas Brooks, University of Florida (Milton Campus), reflected on the student-centered environment at Chipola: “I love coming out to see y’all. Your hospitality and generosity are always so appreciated, but I have to say I got to see something a little deeper this time. I spoke with a young man who told me that y’all treat him like family. He said that when he first started college, he was nervous and thought he wouldn’t be able to make friends. But because of how well everyone here treats him, he feels at home. Before I left, I watched him give you all hugs as he walked out the door. I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to see such close student/staff relationships.”

April Leake, 2UWF Coordinator, University of West Florida, commended Chipola’s event organization: “You always do such a great job. From the location to the set-up to the food to the flair, it’s fantastic! I love visiting your campus. Thank you for hosting!”

Thank you to all for your continued support of our Chipola students and their futures! Your commitment to fostering academic success and transfer readiness is invaluable. The Power of 1.
