Transfer Admission Criteria

• Successful transfer applicants have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0 and a minimum of 24 attempted college credits taken after high school graduation.
• If you have attempted fewer than 24 college credits after high school, an official high school transcript showing graduation date, or a GED certificate is required.
• Official transcript(s) from all previously-attended colleges. Note: If you have attended one or more Minnesota State institutions, your official transcript(s) can be obtained electronically by BSU. We will notify you if we aren’t able to retrieve your MinnState transcripts electronically. See Sending Transcripts.

What if I don’t meet these requirements?

Students who do not meet transfer admission criteria may be accepted conditionally upon recommendation of the Admissions Review Committee. No applicant is refused admission to the university on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, disability, gender identity or gender expression.

Every BSU applicant is reviewed on an individual basis. Admission is granted to applicants who will, in the judgment of the Admissions Review Committee, make positive contributions to the university community and be able to progress satisfactorily toward the completion of all degree requirements. In evaluating applications and appeals, the committee also considers any special circumstances which may have affected the applicant’s prior academic achievement.
