Transfer Pathway Frequently Asked Questions

Below you will find some commonly asked questions for the UGA Transfer Pathway, an invitation only program offered to a small cohort of students. Please keep in mind that the application process is student managed and that students are responsible for keeping up with dates, deadlines and items to be submitted.

Am I eligible for the Transfer Pathway?

The Transfer Pathway Program is offered to a limited number of high school students who completed a UGA First-Year application, were selected for the First-Year application Waitlist and ultimately not offered First-Year admission.

What is the Transfer Pathway?

The Transfer Pathway program allows students to apply in the Spring semester of their first year of college for acceptance as early as Fall of their second year if they have 30 transferrable credit hours completed by June 15 and meet the GPA requirements to transfer to UGA. This Transfer Pathway program allows students an opportunity to apply a semester earlier than the traditional transfer route. The Transfer Pathway program is only for students who were invited to participate in this program.

What do I need to do to accept the Transfer Pathway?

You don’t need to formally accept the Transfer Pathway program. Your Transfer application will automatically be flagged as a Pathway student when it is submitted.

When are my transcripts due?

Eligible Transfer Pathway applicants must submit a Fall Transfer application and application fee by March 1. Applicants must submit official transcripts from all previously attended colleges and be in good academic and conduct standing at each institution. All transcripts must be received by June 15, which is a special three‑month deadline extension not offered to other Fall Transfer applicants.
