Transfer Admissions Standards To be considered for admission, a student needs at least a 2.0 (4.0 scale). Students must submit transcripts from all institutions attended for admission and academic credit review. Transcripts will need to showcase forward academic progress and success in core academic coursework.
Transfer Admission Requirements CAU grants admissions to transfer applicants who have 12 or more semester hours (18 quarter hours) and a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.50 or higher on all college work attempted at a previously attended, regionally accredited college or university.
Generally, the lower your SAI (it can be as low as -1500), the more need-based aid you can expect to receive. At colleges that meet 100% of need, your financial aid package will cover the entirety of your demonstrated need.
Our admissions process is need-aware, meaning that we will deny an application on financial grounds if the CSS PROFILE indicates greater need than we will be able to provide through merit scholarships and need-based financial aid.
