Each year, more than 1,200 highly qualified transfer students enroll at the University of Connecticut. Transferring from one college or university to another can be challenging. That’s why we work hard to make transferring to UConn as smooth a process as possible. 

As a student thinking about or preparing to transfer to UConn, there are some things to consider. Browse through the information below to help you get started!

TRANSFER ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

If you are or have been enrolled at an accredited postsecondary institution and have completed 12 or more credits following high school graduation, the University of Connecticut considers you a transfer student.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

All applicants must apply through either the UConn Application (preferred for transfer applicants), or the Common Application. You may use either application to apply for admission to our main campus in Storrs and our four regional campuses.

DATES & DEADLINES

All application materials must be received by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions by specific deadlines. These deadlines vary depending on the major to which the student is applying. Some majors accept application for the fall AND spring semester, while others only accept application for the fall.

TRANSFERRING CREDIT TO UCONN

It’s not just Storrs that has something to offer. Our four regional campuses across the state at Avery Point, Hartford, Stamford, and Waterbury each boast a unique experience, while still being UConn at their core. So whether it’s the main campus or a regional that you have your sights set on, schedule a visit (or just stop on by) and see for yourself why we are Huskies.
