Transferring to ÃÛѨÊÓÆµ

Am I considered a transfer student?

ÃÛѨÊÓÆµ welcomes transfer applicants who graduated high school and previously enrolled at a college or university with at least 12-semester credits completed. If you have yet to complete high school but are enrolled in early college programs, such as Running Start, you are considered a first-year applicant.

Why transfer to ÃÛѨÊÓÆµ?

ÃÛѨÊÓÆµ is a university with a bright future. Here you will learn ways to enhance your leadership skills and build community within our clubs and organizations or look into our athletic teams and other extracurricular organizations. We offer more than 50 undergraduate programs, as well as our new graduate offerings, taught by our highly accomplished faculty and the hands-on research opportunities students have to work alongside them. ÃÛѨÊÓÆµ is committed to educating the whole person, inside and outside the classroom, and it offers something students crave but rarely find: a sense of genuine community and wholehearted intellectual exchange.

Begin the transfer process today. We look forward to welcoming you to our community!
