Transfer Students
Are you a transfer student or a new freshman (for admission classification purposes)?
Transfer students have graduated from high school at least one year prior to beginning a program at Appalachian State University and completed 15 or more semester hours of transferable coursework at another accredited college/university. Transfer applicants must have at least a cumulative of 2.0 on their college work (as computed by Appalachian), and those with less than 30 semester hours must also meet freshmen requirements. An applicant with fewer than 15 semester hours should apply as a freshman. Please note that transfers are reviewed on a rolling basis and are encouraged to apply six months to one year prior to their intended date of entry.
New freshmen students have graduated from high school/early college/middle college less than one year prior to beginning a program at Appalachian State University or have completed less than 15 semester hours of work at another college/university. Note: many new freshmen complete courses at a college/university prior to, or after, high school graduation. The high school/early college/middle college graduation date overrides the amount of college credit earned, for admission classification purposes.
