Transfers to and from other Indiana University Campuses ("Intercampus Transfer")

Students can transfer easily from one campus of Indiana University to another and continue their studies as degree candidates (Intercampus Transfer). Credits are evaluated on a course-by-course basis, but students generally find that most courses transfer because of the similarity of coursework on the eight campuses.  Intercampus Transfer students from other IU campuses will enter University Division first. Upon meeting the certification requirements noted earlier, they will be certified into the School of Education.

Transferring students should note:

• Degree requirements differ among the various campuses of Indiana University. 
• Students who transfer as degree candidates from one campus of Indiana University to another must meet the degree requirements of the degree-granting division of the campus from which they expect to graduate.

Transfers from other Colleges and Universities

Indiana University welcomes students who wish to transfer from other colleges or universities. Students who have completed less than one full year of academic coursework will be considered for admission into the University Division. Note: No more than 60 credit hours earned at accredited community colleges may be applied toward a degree.

Applications for transfer admission to IUB are evaluated on the basis of a number of factors, including the following:

• A minimum grade point average of 2.000 on a 4.000 scale. A higher GPA may be required for certain majors. In addition, nonresidents of Indiana will be expected to have considerably higher grade point averages for consideration. 
• A minimum grade point average of 2.000 earned in courses that could apply toward the intended major. 
• A high school record showing satisfactory entrance units. 
• Evidence of good standing at the institution last attended.
• Official transcripts of credits and grades earned in all subjects.

Acceptance of credit from other institutions will be determined by the Office of Admissions. The applicability of credit toward degree requirements in the School of Education will be determined by the faculty. Only credits earned at Indiana University will count toward a student’s cumulative and major grade point averages. Courses from other colleges and universities transfer as credit only if the grade earned was a "C" or higher.
