Transfer Resources
Penn State campuses will provide you with one-on-one support to make your transfer process seamless.
Dual Admissions Process
Penn State’s Commonwealth Campuses have partnered with Pennsylvania Community Colleges to provide a seamless Dual Admissions Program for students seeking to complete a four-year degree at Penn State.
Students who are currently enrolled in a Pennsylvania Community College and planning to attend one of Penn State’s Commonwealth Campuses are eligible to apply for dual enrollment.
We know that the transfer process can be overwhelming. Penn State admissions counselors, located throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, can assist you by discussing majors, minors, and certificates that match your interests; evaluating your transfer credits; and referring you to student aid staff.
Pursuing a Penn State degree means access to faculty experts and state-of-the-art resources that will help you make an impact on the world.
Explore all degree options at Penn State’s Undergraduate Bulletin, at which you can:
Search majors offered by interest
Review degree requirements and suggested academic plans
Search majors offered by campus
Learn about the GPA and courses requirements needed to be admitted to a major
Determining How Courses will Transfer
The Transfer Credit Tool will assist you in knowing how your courses will transfer to Penn State. This tool will allow you to search the courses you have completed at your community college, and any other institutions, in order to determine how they might transfer to Penn State. The Penn State college/major of enrollment will determine how transfer credits will be used to meet degree requirements.
Transfer Application Information
Penn State considers you a transfer student if you have attempted or completed 18 or more credits at another college or university after high school graduation. Additionally, to earn a RaiseMe scholarship, students must transfer from a Pennsylvania community college. As you prepare to apply to Penn State, we encourage you to review all the application steps and requirements for transfer students.
