Transfer Students

Get the 4 year degree you want.

BSU welcomes students who have completed an Associate of Arts degree or simply want to transfer from their existing school. Our transfer policy requires a minimum cumulative GPA of at least a 2.0 to meet admission requirements. If you have less than 24 post-secondary credits, please request an official high school transcript along with an official transcript from the school you are currently attending. Please note that official transcripts are required from any and all previous post-secondary institutions you have attended. You can apply online by clicking here or contact the Admissions Office for an application.

• Transferrable credits are accepted from regionally accredited institutions. Credit earned at a non-regionally accredited institution may be evaluated if courses contain similar content to courses offered at BSU.
• Military credits will be evaluated using American Council on Education recommendations.
• 'D' grades are accepted in transfer
• Courses considered developmental and/or remedial will not transfer.
• Technical college credits will transfer up to a block of 16 credits unless part of an articulated program. Additional credits may then be granted depending on the specific articulated program.

To determine if your credits will transfer into your intended major, please contact the chair of the department for that major. They are in charge of determining if your classes will count in their department. Click here to search BSU departments.
