<p>Admission Criteria
The Admission Committee looks for the following qualifications when reviewing transfer candidates: successful completion of college-level course work in a liberal arts curriculum, faculty endorsements, high school record, and standardized test results. A grade point average of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) is recommended.</p>
<p>In addition to academic considerations, the Admission Committee takes note of a students engagement in student or community life. The committee is interested in quality of participation, level of commitment, special talents, honors received, and leadership roles held.</p>
<p>A list of transfer application requirements can be found here. The deadline for Fall Term applications is May 15 and the deadline for Spring Term applications is December 1.</p>

<p>Yea its really not that hard to get in as a Transfer. I know somebody who transferred from a state school who had a ‘less than stellar’ academic record.
However be prepared to put in alot of work. FnM is a really tough college but my freshman year was just bliss!</p>
<p>Yeah I saw that information on collegeboard and didn’t know if it was a typo lol. I’m applying for spring term/option Florence program</p>
