Texas State requires transfer applicants (for summer, fall or spring semesters) be eligible for admission at the time the application is submitted. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions expects applicants to have 30 hours or more of transferable credit AND meet the 2.25 GPA requirements prior to the deadline of the semester for which they are applying. If you are applying to the McCoy College of Business Administration or the Department of Communication Design, other admission requirements apply.
 

Example: Coursework taken in the fall will NOT be considered in the admission decision for the spring. Fall grades will not have been received by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions prior to the Nov. 15 spring deadline.

How To Apply

Transfer Admission Requirements

• A minimum GPA of 2.25 (SAT/ACT scores and HS class rank are not required).
• Eligibility to return (free of suspension, dismissal or enforced withdrawal) to all previous colleges.
