Transfer Admission

Carroll welcomes applications from students whose educational interest will be served by transferring from two-year or four-year colleges. Students are considered transfer candidates if they have attempted a minimum of 24 credits from a regionally accredited college or university after high school graduation.

Admitted candidates are those who, in the view of the Admission Committee, are likely to become successful members of the Carroll community and demonstrate a strong academic background. For that reason, a holistic admission policy is practiced. Transfer students should have a minimum 2.50 overall college grade point average (4.0 scale) to be considered for admission.

A complete admission file includes:

  1. Completed application form, including personal statement
  2. Official transcripts from all college(s) previously attended and official transcripts from high school if fewer than 24 semester credits of college level work was attempted
  3. ACT, CLT or SAT test scores if fewer than 24 semester credits of college level work was attempted. The COMPASS or ACCUPLACER may be requested of applicants who have been out of high school for more than three years
  4. Letter of recommendation is encouraged but not required.

The offer of admission to transfer students is contingent upon the successful completion of collegiate course work.
