Applying as a Transfer Student
Applicants wishing to transfer to the College must complete the Admission procedures. Regular admission status is based upon the credential (degree, diploma, or Technical Certificate of Credit) being sought by the student.
Note: A student must complete in residence at least 25 percent of the credit hours for graduation.

Steps:
- Submit the “Transfer Student” Application for Admissions.
- Applicants who have successfully completed (C or better) a minimum of 12 semester or 18 quarter hours at the postsecondary level or have successful completion of a college level math and english course may submit official transcripts from all previously attended colleges accredited by an accepted accrediting agency in lieu of a high school diploma or a state-authorized examination the state recognizes as the equivalent of a high school diploma as described above. Official, sealed college transcripts may be requested if transfer credit is desired, but college transcripts are not required for admission. Students who wish to have prior college credit evaluated for transfer or intend on using a funding source that requires the evaluation of prior college credit, such as HOPE Scholarship or Veterans Educational Benefits, must submit all post-secondary transcripts along with their admission application.
