Application Process
Step 1

Review the transfer admission requirements.

Step 2

Determine if the major/program of interest has a different application deadline and/or additional admission criteria, e.g., prerequisites, audition, portfolio, etc.

Step 3

Apply online.

Step 4

Submit required materials by the application deadline:

  • All college/university transcripts (sent directly from each institution). College coursework from a non-U.S. institution must be evaluated by a Foreign Credential Evaluation Agency.
    • Fall Applicants - We will need a college transcript with grades posted through the previous fall term.
    • Spring Applicants - We will need a college transcript with grades posted through the previous spring term.
    • Summer Applicants - We will need a college transcript with grades posted through the previous summer term.
  • Official high school transcript (sent directly from the high school).
  • Submit official ACT (#0734) and/or SAT (#5219) results for every test taken. Exam results are required for freshman and sophomore transfer applicants. It is recommended that junior and senior transfer applicants also submit test scores.
  • All AICE, AP, IB, or CLEP results if you have earned college credit through one of these accelerated mechanisms.
  • Submit a personal statement if you will have attempted 90+ hours of college credit (see admission requirements for details).

Step 5

Submit the residency form.
