  4. Reverse Transfer • Once your time at Pellissippi State is complete for the Volunteer Bridge Program, you can opt in to the Reverse Transfer process that would grant you an Associates Degree from Pellissippi, once all requirements are met. This is done when you apply to UTKfor “bridge back”.

  5. Advising Tips for Success • UTK bridge students are REQUIREDto meet with their Pellissippi advisor for their entire time with us.Self-advising can be a disaster! • All students wanting to transfer should be in communication with the 4 year school to verify all classes. They are ultimately the BOSS! • The more you can figure out before your advising appointment regarding school of choice, major, work schedule and commitments, the easier and quicker your appointment will be. • BE PROACTIVE on getting a schedule to have a choice on times and days.
