Terms of service.

The plain-language rules for booking a call with Transfer Answers.

Draft. For Aidan’s review; not yet in effect.

Effective October 1, 2026

Who I am

Transfer Answers is run by me, Aidan Arney, under the business name TransferAnswers. You can reach me at aidan@transferanswers.com.

What the service is

One-on-one guidance calls about the California community college to UC transfer process. There are two:

  • Intro call: 15 minutes, free.
  • Full session: 60 minutes, $100, with a one-page written report sent within 24 hours of the call.

Calls happen on Google Meet. Parents are welcome on both.

I’m not a licensed counselor

I’m not a licensed counselor, and Transfer Answers is not affiliated with or endorsed by the University of California. I share what I learned making this transfer myself, along with public UC data. Your college counselor signs off on your actual schedule, and you should confirm every course on ASSIST.org before you enroll.

No admission guarantees

I don’t guarantee admission to any campus or major. Admission decisions belong to the University of California alone.

Payment, cancellations, and refunds

Full sessions are paid when you book, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, processed by Stripe. Prefer Venmo or PayPal? Email me and we’ll sort it out. Cancel 24 or more hours before your session for a full refund. Intro calls are always free.

Missed sessions

Life happens. If you can’t make it, email me. 24 or more hours ahead, I’ll refund you in full or find a new time. Later than that, or if you miss your session, email me and we’ll find a new time. If you miss your intro call, you’re welcome to rebook anytime.

After your session

Follow-up questions by email are free. Additional calls are not included in the full session.

Essays

On the full session I walk you through my own essays. I don’t write or edit your Personal Insight Questions.

Recording

I record a call only if everyone on the call says yes, and a parent or guardian decides for anyone under 18. A recording lets me write a more detailed report. Recordings are deleted once your report is sent.

Your report

The written report is for you and your family.

Students under 18

A student under 18 must have a parent or guardian present on the call.

Changes

If these terms change, the new version will be posted here with a new date.
