Transfer Students
The Office of Admissions at Johnson C. Smith University
is responsible for the planning and implementation of
admission programs and services. Our mission is to:
- Inform and promote the university’s educational
programs to perspective students and other constituents
- Review applications from, select, and notify those
individuals seeking admissions
- Provide orientation services to those individuals
who have decided to enroll
The goals and objectives of the Office of Admissions
include recruiting, admitting, and enrolling qualified
and capable students. The goals also include continuing
to improve the quality in services and programs that we
provide to all of our constituents, and employing
ethical and legal practices in the college admissions
programs. A completed transfer application must
include the following:
- Completed application form
- $25 application fee
- Official transcripts of all post-secondary
course work mailed directly from each institution
attended.
- Official final high school transcript mailed
directly from the high school (required for transfer
applicants who have attempted less than 12
transferable credits).
-
Transfer clearance form (.pdf) from all
colleges/institutions attended.
Transfer applicants must have an overall average
of a C (2.2 GPA) or above. Transfer applicants who
have attempted fewer than 12 credit hours
must also submit a high school transcript along with
standardized test scores. Note: Standardized test
scores are not required for applicants who have been
out of high school for five years or longer.
Students with more than 12 transferable credits
are not required to submit high school transcripts.
The university generally will accept a maximum of 64
credit hours from a junior college and 90 from a
four-year institution. Credit hours, not grade
points, are transferred. A separate transcript
from each institution is required in order to make
an application complete. All transfer applicants
must be eligible to return to the last institution
attended. |
