Transfer Admission
You're on your way to transferring into the Cowboy family.
The first step is completing the online application — which covers you for admission to the university and all university-sponsored scholarships.
Who counts as a transfer student?
You should apply as a transfer student if you have attempted a minimum of 7 semester
hours of college-level credit after graduation from high school. If you have attempted
less than 7 hours, see the freshman admission requirements.
