WHY UNCG?

UNC Greensboro is consistently named among the best universities in the U.S. And our transfer students play a huge part in our success. After all, about 1/3 of UNCG students started as transfers. We believe in providing a supportive environment to help you seamlessly transfer and continue your education as a Spartan.

Founded in 1891, UNCG is 1 of 3 original UNC System Universities, and was originally established to give women access to a college education. Now we’re one of the largest co-ed, public universities in North Carolina. Here you are welcomed for who you are, and our caring faculty will challenge you every day. Above all, you’ll learn to create a future that makes a real impact.

WHAT IS A TRANSFER STUDENT

  • You are considered a transfer student if you have 24 or more college credit hours from an accredited institution and have graduated high school/earned an equivalency.
  • Are eligible to return to the last institution you attended.

If you have fewer than 24 college credit hours from an institution accredited by one of the agencies below, then you are considered a freshman transfer student. Freshman transfer students must meet requirements under both transfer and freshman admissions requirements programs.

For your credits to be eligible to transfer, they must come from an institution accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC), Western Association of Schools and Colleges, Higher Learning Commission (HLC), Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE), New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE), Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU), Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), or WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC).
