Anyone transferred into Colorado School of Mines?

<p>How many credit hours did you have an what was your GPA? Also, what do you think is a good GPA to get accepted as a transfer?</p>

<p>I am trying to find this out too!</p>

<p>My son was just accepted for the fall 2014 freshman class. But he’ll have 55 community college hours, nearly all of which match CSM’s core curriculum. He has a 4.0 at CC (5.0 weighted for his early college charter school). He’s an in-state student.</p>

<p>The average GPA at CSM for entering students is a 3.8. I don’t know if that includes just h.s. and college or just h.s. But you’ll want a course load that closely matches their core curriculum.</p>

<p>It will depend on if you’re in-state or OOS, too.</p>

<p>If you’re Phi Theta Kappa there’s a good transfer scholarship. They told my son not to use it as he’ll have better scholarship opportunities as an incoming freshman instead. </p>

<p>We won’t know what c.c. credits will transfer for sure until next June.</p>

<p>As an update to my earlier post…</p>

<p>47 of my son’s 55 credits were accepted.</p>

<p>My son’s GPAs at his CC’s were 4.0 and 3.77 - he took classes at two schools to fit in all the classes he could for CSM’s Common Core. His weighted h.s. GPA was 4.95/5.0 but CSM doesn’t weight.</p>
