Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹

A transfer student has enrolled in a college, university, technical or proprietary school after graduation from high school, but has not completed a bachelor's degree. 

You are still considered a transfer student even if you don't think your previous credits will transfer to Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹.

TRANSFER STUDENT INFORMATION

TRANSFER APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS

 
1. Official high school transcript or GED transcripts

• Not required if you have successfully completed 12 or more college-level semester hours.

2. Official transcripts from every college or university you attended

• Submit official transcripts from every college college or university you attended after high school (or after receiving your GED), even if you feel credit will not be transferable. Failure to report previously attended colleges or universities is falsification and may result in denial of admission or dismissal from the university.

3. ACT or SAT scores are optional, but recommended

• ACT or SAT scores help your academic advisor determine which Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ courses are best for you. If you've taken the ACT or SAT, we encourage you to submit your scores to Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ Stark.

4. If applicable, official College Credit Plus transcripts

OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS

Transcripts are considered official only if they arrive in a sealed letterhead envelope from a high school, college or university, or if they are provided directly from the institution by a secure, third-party electronic service. Transcripts issued directly to the student will be accepted only if in a sealed envelope that is stamped or signed by a school official. Once the envelope seal has been broken by someone other than a university employee, the transcript becomes unofficial.

If the original school is mailing your transcript, send to:
Office of Admissions
Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ University
PO Box 5190
Kent, Ohio 44242-0001

Electronic Transcripts
Electronic documents are preferred.

• High school counselors without access to a secure third-party sender can directly email transcripts to transcripts@kent.edu.
• To send your transcript through a third-party sender, select Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ University as the recipient. If an email address is required, use transcripts@kent.edu.
