Admission of Transfer Students
Students who have successfully completed twelve or more transferable credits from another accredited college are invited to apply for undergraduate transfer admission. Transfer students are those who hold a high school diploma or the accepted equivalent and have attended another college or university.
A student applying for admission to Texas Wesleyan University as a transfer student from another accredited college must submit the following to the Office of Admission:
For all transfer students:
1. Application for Admission—A completed application for admission. Forms may be obtained online from the Admissions page on the Texas Wesleyan University website, www.txwes.edu.
2. Transcripts—Official final transcripts from all colleges and universi- ties previously attended. Official transcripts must be sent to Texas Wesleyan University directly from the institution or delivered in person via sealed envelope. The transcript must bear an official seal and/or signature. Failure to list all previously attended institutions on the application can result in future dismissal. Transcripts presented for admission will be destroyed after one year if applicant does not enroll.
For transfer students with fewer than 30 hours of transferable work:
1. Application for Admission—Forms may be obtained from the Office of Admission or online from the Admission page on the Texas Wesleyan University web site, http://www.txwes.edu/admissions/.
2. Transcripts—Official final transcripts from all colleges and universi- ties previously attended. Official transcripts must be sent to Texas Wesleyan University directly from the institution or delivered in person via sealed envelope. The transcript must bear an official seal and/or signature.
3.

4. Tests—Applicants transferring with fewer than 30 hours of college credit must submit official results from the American College Testing (ACT) program or the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) of the College Board directly to the Office of Admission from the testing services or via an official high school transcript. Texas Wesleyan's ACT code number is 4222 and SAT code number is 6828.
