Transfer Application Preparation

Learn our requirements.

Requirements vary depending on your credit level and intended major. Our Transfer Handbook is designed to help you determine what you need to do in order to transfer, while our Transfer Guide gives an overview of course and GPA requirements. If you took AP, IB, or A-Level exams, you can also review our credit equivalencies.

Are you an in-state student?

If you're looking to transfer from one Illinois higher education institution to another, you should also reference iTransfer. If you've been attending a community college in Illinois, review our Transfer Guide.

Have questions?

We want to help! Sign up for a transfer one-on-one session with an admissions counselor for answers to any questions you have as you're preparing to transfer. You can also email our transfer counselors your questions directly.

Compare your GPA.

You can determine your chance of getting into the program of your choice by taking a look at our general transfer GPA guidelines.

Review GPAs

Find out which of your classes will transfer.

Transfer course equivalencies help you determine what courses transfer, while planning guides show you how your transfer credit can be used in a program of study. Note that these things don't constitute a contract between you and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and that transfer credit for fine art skills courses are subject to audition and placement exam or portfolio review.

Learn what transfers

Make sure your major is available.

Before applying, you'll want to confirm that your intended major is currently considering applicants at your level.
