Competitive prospective transfer students typically have completed 24 or more college credits with a preferred GPA of 3.0 or higher and have a strong college preparatory high school record predictive of college-level success. Applicants’ academic histories are reviewed ‘holistically’ and cumulatively so students with a weaker high school record may need to have earned more college-level credits than others (48-60) to be considered competitive. Likewise, significant life and/or work experiences, if communicated in your application essay, will be part of your admission review. Should you have questions about applying, call 412-624-7488, and ask to speak with a transfer counselor.

Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences applicants who have earned 48 or more credits will be expected to have satisfactorily completed one college-level English composition course and a college-level algebra class (or higher level math) with a ‘C’ grade or better.

The fewer credits a prospective student has earned, the more weight is placed on academic performance in high school.
