Transfer
You’ve taken courses, done your exploration, and now you’re ready to complete your degree. To submit a transfer application, you must have already completed 12 or more credit hours of college coursework at a regionally accredited university after graduating high school, or be seeking a second bachelor’s degree. Applicants must be in good standing with their previous colleges/universities.
With more than 100 academic programs, over 200 student organizations, and nearly 5,000 students, at Bradley, you will find the support you need to easily transfer and be part of the BU Community.
