Transfer credits are not included in the computation of grade point averages. Tulane-sponsored programs such as Junior Year Abroad, Washington Semester, and geology field camps award Tulane credit, not transfer credit. Transfer students should arrange for the Office of Undergraduate Admission to receive transcripts and course descriptions for courses in progress at the time of application well in advance of the beginning of classes to allow a timely evaluation of credits. Transcripts that arrive late may result in students repeating courses for which they already have earned acceptable credits. In such cases, the Tulane credit is disallowed when the transcript shows completion of the equivalent transferable course.
Housing is generally available for transfer applicants.
Interested candidates should contact the Office of Housing and Residence Life. Students who have been denied further registration in one division ordinarily are not admissible to another division. Applicants for interdivisional transfer must have been admitted to a full-time program of the University by the Office of Undergraduate Admission, should have taken courses applicable to a degree program, and should be prepared to take the last 27 of the credits required for graduation in the division to which they are applying. The A.B. Freeman School of Business requires that the last 24 credits be earned in residence. Interdivisional transfers apply for admission at their current dean's office.
