Transfer Student Requirements
In addition to the application for admission, students transferring from another college or university must submit:
-

-
an official high school transcript if earned less than 24 college semester hours (Policy M402.2), or 36 quarter hours, and;
-
official ACT or SAT test scores if less than 24 semester hours of college course work has been completed.
If the Office of Admissions has not received such documentation by the fourth week of the student’s attendance, registration may be terminated.
Transfer applicants who have completed 24 or more semester or 36 or more quarter hours of credit toward a degree program shall be admitted to Mayville State if (Policy M402.4):
-
They are in good standing [not on dismissed or suspended status] at their most recent institution attended.
-
Present a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale computed on all transferable work attempted at all colleges and universities previously attended.
Transfer students must meet the above academic standards for admission to the University. The applications of transfer students who are subject to an existing suspension order by another institution or who fail to meet the above standard for admission will be denied admission and given the right to appeal before the Admissions and Academic Standards Committee. The Committee may impose special conditions of admission for transfer students who fail to meet the academic standards.
Mayville State honors academic probation, existing suspensions, or disciplinary action recorded by a previous school. Students with existing financial obligations to other colleges and universities will be denied admission to MSU until those obligations are met.
