The Summer/Fall transfer and transient applications opened on Tuesday, January 24. While the application is now open, please take your time completing it. Again, please take your time, as it is much easier to submit a correct application than fix problems with a error filled one. Make sure you are applying for the correct program, the correct campus, the correct term, etc. Here are a few suggestions and updates for transfer applicants.
While the application is open, we project we will not begin reviewing Summer transfers and transients until mid-late February, and we will not start with Fall transfers until March.
- Review our transfer procedures and requirements, as well as our academic consideration levels.
- Select the term you wish to attend, not one you have heard is easier to get in (this is a myth). If you select summer, for instance, we expect you to attend for summer, and if you do not, you cannot then attend in the fall.
- Please send in all the required transcripts after you apply, not before. As well, we need all transcripts from colleges ever attended, even if you attended a college during HS.
- When you are at the page where you enter in your previous schools, start typing in the name or city of the school, and it will auto generate schools that match. Select the correct one and the right code will then populate.
- If a transcript has a different name than the one you applied with, please make sure to let us know so we can match up documents,
- If you started a freshman application earlier to set up an account, you will need to change the application type, etc.
- It is much better to get everything correct before applying rather than try to fix things after you submit an application, so triple check everything.
- Once you apply, be patient. Review the timelines page on this blog, give us time to match up things, and relax. For document matching purposes, we suggest you give us 10 business days from when you apply or submit transcripts, whichever one comes last.
- Make sure to monitor your status page after sending in transcripts, but give us time to complete your file.
Go Dawgs, and be patient!
