OPTIONAL APPLICATION INFORMATION

Personal Statement: You may complete a personal statement discussing your
personal goals as they relate to your interest in transferring to JMU.

Standardized Test Scores: JMU does not require applicants to submit SAT/ACT
scores.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

If you have taken any college coursework after graduating from high school, you
are considered a transfer applicant in our process. The more college coursework
you have completed, the less we consider your high school record in our review.
For students who were not competitive for admission to JMU directly from high
school, we recommend that they complete or be in the process of completing at
least 24 credit hours post-high school graduation at the time they apply.

In our review process, JMU considers the following from transfer applicants:

 * College courses
 * College grade point average
 * High school courses
 * High school grades

To be considered a competitive applicant, students should have at least a 3.0
cumulative GPA and successfully completed college course work in these core
subject areas: English, mathematics, social science and lab science.

If you have a question about the process, reach out to your regional
recruiter for guidance.

Please note, admission to JMU does not necessarily guarantee admission into your
intended major. For information on majors that have additional requirements,
please view our Admission and Progression Standards.
