                                            ADMISSIONS PROCEDURES AND TRANSFER INFORMATION

 

Students applying to transfer to BYU should have completed a minimum of 30.0 semester hours of credit.  We must receive an official transcript from each institution attended.  Students requesting to transfer before completing 30.0 semester hours of college credit must also submit an official high school transcript, and the American College Test (ACT) results. To be most competitive for admission a student should have a transfer GPA in the B+ range or higher. The higher the transfer GPA the better the opportunity for admission to BYU. Approximately 50 percent of the hours completed should be in the general education subjects (i.e., English, mathematics, history, science, foreign language).  Students who transfer to BYU must be able to graduate in the normal time allotted to BYU students who are in the same major and the same class standing (i.e., sophomore, junior, etc.). 

 

 

                                               ADVANCED PLACEMENT AND MILITARY CREDIT AT BYU

 

Students with a score of 3, 4, or 5 on an advanced placement exam may receive credit at BYU for each examination.

Students who have been on active duty in the military service for more than one year may receive 2.0 semester hours of credit in Wellness and 4.0 semester hours of Military Science credit.  Credit may be given for completion of special military schools.  A student desiring such credit should contact the Transfer Evaluation Office (A-188 ASB, 801-422-2500) at BYU.
