Admissions Process
- Application
Complete the Application for Admissions. You should include
transcripts of prior academic credit earned. If you do not
have student copies of your transcripts, request them from
the appropriate university or college and have them sent
directly to SFU. If you will not be submitting transcripts
from a University or College, you must include proof of
a high school diploma. In addition, please include copies
of your professional licenses as well as copies of professional
certificates.
- Application Evaluation
SFU will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your prior
academic credit, relevant educational training, and learning
experiences. Within ten working days of receipt of your
application, we will prepare a detailed Evaluation Report.
This report will outline those courses we have determined
you should take and those courses for which we have accepted
transfer credit.
- Transferring
Undergraduate students may transfer up to 94 hours of credit
from four-year, degree-granting institution. Graduate students
may transfer a combined maximum of 15 semester hours of
transfer credit and prior learning credit to be used on
a master's degree program.
You will first need to apply for admission to SFU. SFU requires
