Transfer Information for Undergraduate Schools

External transfers admitted to any of Penn's undergraduate schools or divisions are not eligible to transfer again within the University.

Each of the University of Pennsylvania's four undergraduate schools accepts transfer students. Additionally, transfer students may apply for admission to the College of General Studies, the division of the School of Arts and Sciences that has specific responsibility for continuing education. It is very important that transfer candidates apply to the appropriate school.

The University does not admit freshmen at mid-year. Students who leave college at the end of the first term may apply to the freshman class entering in the subsequent September. The freshman application deadline is January 1. Students who are completing their senior year of high school concurrently with their first year of college should apply as freshmen.

All four undergraduate schools, and the College of General Studies, are academically rigorous and have their own requirements and policies. Please be sure to review all options so that you apply to the appropriate school.
