Orientation and Activities for Transfer Students: Are Freshmen Models Appropriate

Worley, Bill; Conrad, Rowan

NASPA Journal, 10, 4, 333-337, Apr 73

When a large sample of freshmen and transfer students at Kansas State University responded to the New Student Inventory, it was found that while transfer students are less prone to participate in existing extra-curricular activities than are freshmen, activities connected with personal concerns such as money and dating are of interest to them. Large and significant differences between freshmen and transfers were found in other areas as well. (EK)
