2019–2020 Transfer Criteria

Application Considerations:

  • Meeting minimum requirements does not guarantee admission; other factors are considered (i.e. program and/or cohort capacity) 
  • Timeline to graduation will be determined after acceptance; program may require up to five years
  • Applicants must be prepared to enter ESL1080 or ENGL1001 in order to be considered for admission
