A prospective transfer student should submit an admission application and a complete official transcript from each college or university attended, whether credit was earned or is desired. All transcripts should be submitted at the time of application, to be followed by supplementary records at the close of the semester.

“Official transcript" is defined as an official record prepared by the issuing institution and sealed in the institution's official envelope or sent electronically directly from the issuing institution. Official transcripts should be sent directly to the Office of Admissions.

The following minimum requirements must be met for an applicant to be considered for admission: a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 on all college-level courses attempted (excluding developmental/remedial courses) from all accredited institutions attended; receipt of official transcripts from all institutions attended; and eligibility to re-enroll at the last institution attended. Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission into your major or clinical program.

All students will be considered for admission based on an evaluation of their likelihood of success at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University. Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University will consider college grade point average, pattern and quality of courses taken, grade trends, educational objectives, significant life and career experiences, membership in groups under- represented in the student body, or special circumstances.

Conditional admission, pending receipt of supplementary records, is approved by the Office of Admissions only under special circumstances. An applicant who meets the criteria for admission based on unofficial transcripts or who is currently enrolled at another institution at the time that admission is determined may be admitted conditionally based unofficial or incomplete transcripts. Official and complete transcripts must be received within 30 days of the start of semester in which the applicant enrolls, for the student to continue enrollment and to be removed from conditional acceptance. An applicant who does not submit complete official college transcripts will have a hold placed on their student account and will not be allowed to re-enroll until these transcripts have been received by Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University.

Applicants who are in good standing at their previous institutions, but who do not meet Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University's standards of academic progress will be placed on academic probation. Applicants admitted on academic probation must perform under the academic policies of Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University. (See “Progression Status" and “Academic Probation" sections in this catalog.)

Transfer applicants who are on academic suspension or "not in good standing" at another college or university will be denied admission to Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University until they qualify for re-admission to the school from which they were suspended or last attended.
