Students are eligible for admission
as transfer students if they have earned 12 or more college-level credits
(excluding PSEO) at a regionally accredited college-level institution. Applicants
should have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher.
To be considered for admission, transfer students must complete the following steps:
Sending MnSCU Official Transcripts to St. Cloud State University
If you have attended or are currently attending one or more MnSCU institutions, your official transcripts can be electronically retrieved by St. Cloud State University. Please check the MnSCU list to determine if your college is a member of this system.
Important: We will not be able to electronically retrieve your transcript(s) if you have holds on your records including, but not limited to, unpaid balance(s) on your records. It is your responsibility to ensure that your records are free of holds in order for institutions to send or electronically retrieve your academic transcript(s).
Please note: Students who have earned less than 12 credits should apply as a first year student. In addition to sending a high school transcript, students will need to send their college transcript(s).
Admission into a Major Program
Many departments require
a grade point average higher than 2.0 for admission to specific major or
minor programs. Some programs require completion
of specific course sequences, minimum grades in certain perquisite courses,
or an assessment test prior to applying to the major.
Being admitted to St. Cloud State University is a separate process than that
of being admitted into a major program. You first must be accepted
to SCSU, then you may make application to an individual major or minor program.
St. Cloud State University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity educator and employer.
St. Cloud State University is a member of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system.
