Admission Criteria
- Determine what major you are interested in and refer to the corresponding
college-specific information here.
- Identify your major's degree track on the chart
here.
Transfer applicants must have at least a 2.5 GPR on at least 24 graded semester hours of transferable course work at
the time of application to be considered. The GPR necessary to be competitive can vary by college and major.
Applicants who drop or withdraw from courses frequently and who do not achieve satisfactory grades
(B or C, depending upon the intended major) will be at a disadvantage in the review for admission.
Transfer applicants are admitted to a specific major and are required to follow the curriculum of that major.
Some colleges consider second choice majors. While such admissions may be more competitive since they are made after
applicants indicating that major as first choice, the admission decision follows the guidelines for that college
presented in the college-specific information. Note that several colleges do not consider second choice majors.
The entire application, including the essay, is considered to identify admissible candidates. Many of the colleges
base their decisions, in part, on the content of Essay Topic A. Therefore, all applicants are required to complete
the essay and thoroughly describe their educational goals. A complete application packet must be on file by
March 17, 2008 for spring grades to be considered.
Transfer admission decisions are made by each college and major and are competitive; thus, admission standards are not
known until the review for admission occurs. Preference is given to the applicant with the highest grade point ratio
(GPR) and the most courses completed in the Degree Track for the major designated on the application. See the
college-specific information for the college of the major for which you are applying.
In the case a student is denied for the fall term, spring grades may then be used in the admissions decision
if received by June 1 and if space is still available in the intended major.
