Transferring colleges can be a great idea if you're sure that the new school offers opportunities your current school lacks.

General steps involved in the transfer process

To be considered for admission, students should first send in their transfer applications.

Second, they should have their high school and college transcripts sent to the college to which they’re applying.

Once they’ve completed those steps, an evaluation of previous credit, along with the admission decision, is made and provided to them.

Process of applying to school of choice

If students wish to attend classes during the winter semester, they should begin the application process in October.

To begin in the fall semester, they should start the process in January.

GPA required for transfer to a new university

Grade point average does not transfer.

Students must begin their academic careers with a 0.0 GPA.

Resources use to determine which of their credits will transfer

Sending in a transcript for review by the appropriate department faculty members or admissions advisors is the fastest way to get the answers.

Course check sheets, often available in each dean’s office, are helpful resources.

Students should visit their university’s Web site for information on credit transfer.

Take the Credit

Meeting with your academic counselors or advisors at the new university you’ll attend is a crucial step in the transfer process.

Follow these guidelines to save time and to be sure the course credit you’ve earned will carry over to your new institution.

Get in touch with the transfer student advisor to find out what types of course credits will transfer

Contact the school you’ll attend to find out what its transfer policy is. Some schools will accept only credits for classes similar to those they offer.

Generally, universities require that you obtain at least a C in a class in order for the credit hours to transfer.

Research whether your community college has an articulation agreement or a collaborative agreement with the university you’d like to attend.
