General Information and Requirements
Students may be accepted for transfer from other regionally
accredited
colleges and universities if a minimum 2.00 cumulative
GPA has been
maintained on all course work attempted with the exception
of vocational/
technical or other courses not acceptable for transfer.
Every attempt on repeated courses is counted. Applicants must list all
colleges attended on the application for admission. (Failure to provide
information about prior college attendance is grounds for disciplinary
action including immediate dismissal from the University.)
In addition the applicant must meet one of the following
criteria:
- Have been admissible as a freshman. The applicant must
submit official high school records (see Freshman Admission)
as well as college transcripts to meet this requirement.
- Have successfully
completed at least the following 24 semester hours of
college work at a regionally accredited school:
•
6 hours of English Composition
•
3 hours of College Algebra or higher
•
6 hours of Laboratory Science
•
9 hours of Transferable Electives
- Have earned an Associate in Arts (A.A.) degree intended
for transfer to a four-year school.
A student who does
not meet the 2.00 transfer GPA requirement and has been
out of school for at least 12 months may be considered
for admission on probation. The student must submit a
letter of petition with the application and be approved by the academic
dean of the college or school that the student wishes to enter. Students
who have been out of school for at least 36 months can also be admitted
without petition as Undergraduate Special Students (see below).
