Geoff Herzog
Herzog's role at SC State consists of: making sure transfer credits are given to students for previous college studies, assisting and getting assistance from department chairs in the transfer articulation process, interfacing with two-year colleges and other entities with events for outreach to prospective transfer students, and developing, coordinating and executing new strategies for international recruitment of students while interfacing with appropriate U.S. Government agencies.
