The Career & Transfer Center is located on the second floor of the Library. We provide career planning resources and assistance to help students achieve their career goals. Services can be utilized throughout a student’s entire academic career at SUNY Sullivan.
Planning one’s career is a continuous and at times seemingly overwhelming process. We strongly recommend that students become familiar with our services and staff and become actively engaged in their career planning from their very first semester.
We offer numerous programs and services that can assist students with their career planning:
- Career counseling
- Career & self assessments
- Choosing a major
- Job placement assistance
- Transfer assistance to a four-year college/university. During this period of time where the college has switched to online learning, here are some steps to help with the transfer process. STEP 1: Apply online through SUNY.edu for SUNY colleges/universities. For private and out-of-state colleges apply at: apply.commonapp.org. STEP 2: Order your transcript at getmytranscript.com. STEP3: Update your FAFSA to include the colleges you’re applying too. If you receive financial aid you may qualify for a fee waiver. For SUNY, click on this link: https://www.suny.edu/media/suny/content-assets/documents/application-forms/fee_waiver.pdf . After signing the fee waiver form, you must send it to me (via email) for my signature.
