While the majority of Maricopa County Community College District’s faculty and staff begin to move towards online instruction and telecommuting, we want to reassure transfer students they can still communicate with our university transfer representatives here at PVCC.


Asu logoAimee Sharifi, ASU’s transfer coordinator, continues to host one-on-one appointments both virtually and by phone regarding admission and enrollment processes. She will help you navigate the process and connect you with ASU reps who work with Honors or specific degree programs like business, criminal justice, and education. Visit  https://admission.asu.edu/contact/transfer to schedule an appointment or email her directly at asharifi@asu.edu.

Aimee also suggests checking out ASU’s transfer guide and resources, plus sign up for ASU Pathways (MAPP) if you are a first-year PVCC student. MAPP helps students plan ahead and complete coursework designed for a smooth transition to earn their ASU bachelor’s degree. Students who sign up for the MAPP receive guaranteed admission to their desired ASU major once requirements are met, save time and money by taking the courses needed for transfer, and have access to a personalized portal called the Pathway Tracker.
