Transfer Students

Transfer students who are in good academic standing are encouraged to apply - please click here to review the requirements to apply to TLU.

Transfer applicants with fewer than 15 semester hours of university-level work will be evaluated under the requirements for freshman admissions. For those with less than 24 hours of university-level work, the high school transcript may be required. Applicants with credit earned at non-accredited institutions (trade, technical or career schools) must submit transcripts, but the credit is generally not transferable.

Usually, transferable university-level work with a C average (2.00 on the 4.00 scale) will be accepted. Students on scholastic or disciplinary suspension are not eligible to apply until the suspension period has passed.

Transfer work taken at another college or university while a student is academically suspended is generally not accepted. Also, failure to make an accurate report of all colleges attended will result in disciplinary action and possible dismissal.

An evaluation of transferable credits and determination of graduation requirements will be conducted for each accepted applicant by the Office of Registration and Records. This is usually done after receipt of the $200 acceptance deposit, prior to registration.

If you would like to review your transcript to get an idea of what credit will transfer to TLU.  Please visit the Course Equivalency Guide - this guide uses the Texas Common Numbering System.
