Transfer Students

In general, transfer applicants must have at least a 2.0 cumulative GPA to be considered for admission. Certain majors are more selective and require both a higher minimum grade point average and specific coursework. The following guidelines for transfer admission do not guarantee admission.

2013 Fall Transfer Guidelines

Each applicant is reviewed individually, taking into account factors such as cumulative grade point average, rigor of coursework, trend in grades, choice of major, transferability of courses, and type of institution attended. Students who want to know whether the course(s) they are taking or plan to take will transfer to the University of Delaware may consult the University of Delaware Transfer Matrix.

Except for approved Connected Degree Programs, transfer credits from community colleges are generally accepted as equivalent to lower-division (100-200 level) coursework at the University of Delaware. The Assistant Dean's Office within the admitted student's College will make the final determination of how transfer credits apply to the student's degree program and graduation requirements. Departments may require applicants to repeat outdated courses and/or course work completed more than seven calendar years earlier.
