If the applicant has been out of high school for 2 or more years, SAT or ACT scores are no longer required. If a student has completed less than 24 semester hours of credit at the time of application, they must supply SAT or ACT scores and an official, final high school transcript. If a student has withdrawn from an institution prior to receiving grades and a transcript is unavailable, the students must submit an official letter from the Registrar regarding enrollment. If preliminary transcripts are submitted, the student must see that final transcripts are received at the end of the semester. The Office of Admissions should receive an official transcript from all institutions attended. Please follow all instructions and submit required materials.

How and When Transfers Should ApplyĪpplicants should apply electronically by accessing and clicking Apply Now. This requires the successful completion of at least 24 semester hours of transfer credit prior to applying as a transfer student. Applicants whose secondary school credentials would not warrant admissions consideration as a first year student have an alternate pathway to apply as a transfer student. Specific information may be obtained from the Office of Admissions. Special consideration is awarded to graduates of Pennsylvania community colleges and to students transferring from other universities in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education.

Some academic departments have established prerequisite course work and specific grade point average requirements for admission. A minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.00 is required for transfer consideration. Individuals who have been enrolled in any post-secondary institution after graduation from high school and/or have attended West Chester University on a non-degree basis must apply as transfer students.
