The preferred application deadlines for transfer students are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fall semester: July 15<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spring semester: December 1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Applications received after these dates will be reviewed on a space-available basis.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"application-review\">Application Review<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>If a student has 24 transferable credits or more, the University will only look at the student\u2019s collegiate coursework. If the student has&nbsp;fewer than 24 transferable credits, we will base our decision on a combination of the collegiate and secondary school coursework. Transferable credits are courses in which the student has earned a \u201cC\u201d or better and are 100+ level courses or above. Basic skills courses are not transferable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students with a cumulative GPA of 2.25 or better will be <em>considered<\/em> for admission to the University. Students pursuing a major within the School of Education must have a minimum GPA of 3.00, according to New Jersey State Guidelines. Admission is determined by successful completion of coursework over time and is not automatic; there may be instances when a student with a 2.25 GPA or greater will not be offered admission. This is decided on a student-by-student basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students can transfer up to 69 credits from a two-year institution providing these credits fulfill degree requirements. Students who attended both two-year and four-year institutions may apply a maximum of 24 additional credits at the 200-level or higher. Students who attended a four-year institution only may apply a maximum of 90 credits toward a degree at Monmouth providing these credits fulfill degree requirements. Transfer students must complete at least 16 credits in their major at Monmouth University.

Students who have been dismissed for academic reasons will not be considered for acceptance until at least one academic semester has elapsed following their dismissal. Students who have been dismissed from another institution may not apply for admission until one semester after the date of dismissal.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"decision-notification\">Decision Notification<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>All applications to Monmouth University are reviewed on a rolling basis. Students should receive a decision approximately two to three weeks after a student\u2019s application is made complete.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"returning-students-application-process\">Returning Students: Application Process<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Students who have left Monmouth University for a semester or less than one year ago without requesting a leave of absence and have not attended another institution during the absence need to fill out a new application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students who have left Monmouth University more than one year ago must complete a new application for admission and provide transcripts from all colleges\/universities attended during the absence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students who have been academically dismissed or are&nbsp;on probation will need permission to return to the University from the dean in the respective academic area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-mu-contact has-image\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"imageWrapper\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1120\" height=\"1120\" style=\"object-position: 48.85% 51.27%\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-post-image\" alt=\"Patrick Dorsey\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09.jpg 1120w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-560x560.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-280x280.jpg 280w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2019\/06\/Patrick-Dorsey-Headshot_20200908_AD_09-360x360.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1120px) 100vw, 1120px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"nameAndTitle\">\n\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"name block-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/profiles\/pdorsey\/\">Patrick Dorsey<\/a><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"title component-title\">Associate Director for Transfer Admission<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"bioText\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"dept\">Admission \u2013 Undergraduate<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"office\">The Great Hall at Shadow Lawn, 108<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"phone\"><a href=\"tel:(732) 263-5873\">732-263-5873<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"email\"><a href=\"mailto:pdorsey@monmouth.edu\" title='Email Patrick'>pdorsey@monmouth.edu<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In order to apply to Monmouth University as a transfer student, you&nbsp;should submit the following items: Please note: If you are transferring any credit from Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), or CLEP, official scores must be sent directly from the testing agency.
