Just as a Resident Assistant (RA) helps resident students transition to college life, a Commuter Assistant (CA) and Transfer Assistant (TA) does the same for students both undergraduate and graduate students who commute or have transferred to Drexel. The CAs and TAs serve as mentors and resources for first year students as they adjust to college life.
