SANTA MARIA — Allan Hancock College celebrated 2024 graduates who will continue their education at four-year universities at its annual University Transfer Celebration on May 17 at the college’s Santa Maria campus.
Hosted each year by Hancock’s University Transfer Center, the event was an opportunity for Hancock’s transfer students to celebrate their achievements with their friends and family as they prepared for a new chapter in their educational journeys. More than 200 “transfer stars” were invited to this year’s celebration.
Participating students, many wearing apparel from their respective universities, received a commemorative?transfer?medallion, took photos with their soon-to-be university peers, and listened to messages of support from Hancock staff and their fellow?transfer?students.
“This is a chance to celebrate your accomplishments and get excited about your next adventure,” said Hancock’s Associate Superintendent/Vice President of Student Services Genevieve Siwabessy, Ed.D. “We know that wherever you are going next, you will excel.”
