Transfer Ambassadors

The 2016 Transfer Ambassadors were chosen during a selective hiring process to help our incoming transfer students adjust to life at Coastal Carolina University. While transfer students have been college students before, CCU is new for them, and this group of students have lived what they are about to experience.

Favorite Chanticleer tradition? FRIED CHICKEN FRIDAY Favorite quote? "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
