Standards for Transfer Students

If you have earned fewer than 14 transferable semester credits, you will be considered for admission on the basis of your high school transcript or GED and your college transcript. If you are under 21, your ACT or SAT scores will be considered as well.

If you have earned 14 or more transferable semester credits, you will be considered for admission on the basis of your college transcript. You will be admitted with general admission status if you were in good academic standing at the last institution you attended and have a cumulative GPA (grade-point average) of at least 2.0 (based on transferable credits from all colleges and universities). If you have a GPA of less than 2.0, you will be considered for admission on probation. However, if you were dismissed from your last college or university during the most recent semester, you will be required to remain out of Boise State classes for at least one semester (fall or spring).
