Transfer Students

What is a transfer student?

Any applicant who has ever been enrolled at any post-secondary schooling (even if you took one course or did not complete a semester) is considered a transfer student.

Transfer Application Requirements

  • A completed Common Application, PSU supplement, and fee
  • Official copy of high school transcript or GED with graduation date
  • Official copies of all college transcripts, including grades from most recent semester completed, and cumulative grade-point average (GPA) of 2.0 based on a 4.0 scale on the final transcript from the institution you are currently attending or last attended (required for consideration)
  • A well-written essay on one of the subjects listed on the application
  • Payment of the application fee ($50)

Application Deadlines

The application and all supporting credentials (see application checklist above) must be received by the following dates:

  • Fall Semester: April 1
    • February 1 for Nursing applicants
  • Spring Semester: December 1

Candidates applying after deadlines may receive consideration only as vacancies occur. The University reserves the right to close admission prior to the above deadlines if enrollment has reached full capacity.

I came to Plymouth State after having a great time here with my sister. When I started looking for colleges again, PSU was the one. The professors are really nice, know your name within a few days, and genuinely care about your education. I’ve really enjoyed my stay here and will miss it when I graduate.
