Admission to the School of Journalism
Transfer Students
Transfers from Other Colleges and Universities
Students who wish to transfer to IUPUI should contact the Office of Admissions, Campus Center 420, Indianapolis, IN 46202-5143, (317) 274-4591. Students who wish to transfer to Bloomington should contact the Office of Admissions, 300 N. Jordan Avenue, Bloomington, IN 47405, (812) 855-0661.
Transfer students are first admitted to the University Division at Bloomington. They may then apply to the School of Journalism when they have completed the application requirements. Because transfer courses are not calculated in the cumulative grade point average for Indiana University students, transfer students must complete a minimum of one semester at Indiana University before they can be considered for admission to the school.
Acceptance of credit from other institutions will be determined by the Office of Admissions, and the applicability of credit toward degree requirements in the School of Journalism will be determined by the dean. No more than 12 transfer credit hours of mass communications courses may be counted in the journalism major. Only credits earned at Indiana University will count toward a student's grade point average. Courses from other colleges and universities transfer as credit only.
Transfers within the School of Journalism on the Bloomington and Indianapolis Campuses
Students admitted to the school on the Bloomington campus who are transferring to the school on the Indianapolis campus should complete an Inter-Campus Transfer form available on the Web at www.iupui.edu/~moveiu. Students admitted to the school on the Indianapolis campus who are transferring to the school on the Bloomington campus must have completed all admission requirements as defined by the Bloomington campus and complete the same Web form. See "Admission to the School of Journalism" in this bulletin. Students who have not met all admission requirements may transfer to the University Division. Inter-campus transfer applications will be accepted throughout the year. However, students may take advantage of Continuing Student Registration by filing for an inter-campus transfer by March 1 for summer and fall semesters, and October 1 for spring semester.
Transfers from Other Indiana University Campuses
