Transfer student resume. Advice needed.
Hello fellow monkeys,
I have one quick question to ask about the resume formation for transfer student.
I transferred from Big State school to Top 20 private college few years ago and I was wondering if I have to include my previous institution on my resume.
My current resume only has the institution that provided me a degree not the previous institution. By the way I graduated last year and am currently working and heading to graduate school this September.
Just don't want any troubles for my future job hunting process. Any advice is welcome.
Thanks guys
Push. Any comments?
You only have to list the school that granted you your degree but if you're listing leadership activities/extracurriculars from the previous school, I'd make sure to note that that just for clarity's sake.
Btw, no one will ever think less of you for being a transfer student and anyone who does is a jerk.
Thanks for your insight! So if I decide to omit the previous school, I should not mention anything like "Transferred from University of XXX" right?
Nope, you're only obligated to show the institution from which you received your degree
Okay. One last question to ask! So I pretty much took basic to intermediate level courses at my previous university and advanced courses at the most recent one. Can I name those intermediate courses for relevant coursework under the recent one?
I don't know if I'd do that... if you're going to only list the most recent school, you should only list courses taken at that school and the GPA you list should only be your GPA from courses at that school
