Apply as a Transfer Student

If you've earned college credits after graduating from high school, you're considered a transfer student and should follow the process below to apply to UND.

If you have not attended college after high school graduation, please follow the freshmen application process.

1. Review Transfer Admission Criteria

Specific admission requirements for transfer students are based upon the total number of transferable college credits at the time of your application.

If you've completed 24 transferable college credits (including in progress), you must meet the following criteria to be admitted to UND:

  • Minimum of a 2.0 cumulative GPA
  • Be in good standing at the college(s) you previously attended

If you've completed fewer than 24 transferable college credits (including in progress), you must meet the criteria above in addition to the criteria for freshmen.

Carefully review the Transfer Credits page to gain an understanding of how credits transfer to UND.

2. Complete Application

You can apply up to one year in advance of when you plan to start at UND.

Applications are being accepted for the fall 2025, spring 2026 and summer 2026 semesters.

Admissions Application

Use your UND admissions application to:

  • Start, save and submit your online application. Applicants are charged a $35 (U.S. funds) non-refundable fee.
  • Check your application status.
  • View your application checklist.
  • See admission decisions.
  • Confirm your enrollment.

You will receive emails throughout the process on the status of your application. It's your responsibility to ensure all submitted materials are received and attached to the application. Please monitor your admissions application account and email used to apply.

We recommend using Google Chrome on a desktop when completing the application. If you run into issues with items not displaying, clear your cache and cookies.

Aerospace Students
Aviation Management and Commercial Aviation are no longer accepting applications for fall 2025. The next term available is fall 2026. Applications open Aug. 1, 2025.

Applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible to ensure the best chance of being considered for each program. Admission deadlines are subject to change in future terms.

Readmission

Undergrad students who leave the University for at least one semester, not including summer semester, are required to apply for readmission.

3. Send Transcripts

Request your official college and high school transcripts to be sent directly from all previously attended schools (including any study abroad coursework) to UND.

You do not need to send your high school transcripts if you've completed 24 transferable college credits (including in progress) from an institution accredited by a regional or national accrediting organization recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA), including the American Council on Education (ACE).

Transcripts can be sent electronically through a secured electronic transcript service or by mail in a sealed envelope to:

UND Office of Admissions
3501 University Ave Stop 8357
Grand Forks, ND 58202-8357

Coursework taken outside the U.S. may require additional evaluation by World Education Services (WES ICAP).
