GPA to transfer to Penn State

<p>Anyone know what GPA you need to transfer out of state to Penn?</p>

<p>Looks like the minimum is 2.0
[Application</a> Requirements: Transfer Students: Penn State University Undergraduate Admissions](<a href=“http://admissions.psu.edu/info/future/transfer/requirements/]Application”>Admissions Requirements for Transfer Students - Undergraduate Admissions)</p>

<p>^^^ bottom of page it has “general Eligibility” for 2-yr and 4-yr</p>

<p>More specifically, the university park campus, though. I am not sure what the deal is with that, because I read somewhere it says you need only 18 credit hours, but somewhere else it says you need 2 years before you can transfer, so I’m not so sure…</p>

<p>I guess you need 2 years, so would at least 48 credit hours suffice by the time you transfer?</p>

<p>From the schools website it states you need 2 years so that would be about 48 credits. I do not know for sure but I would go by what the website says. Or you could call.</p>

<p>Heres what the site has for 4 yr University Park (the minimum GPA is different for University Park)</p>

<p>A minimum 2.5 GPA is required for transfer admission to University Park.
Applicants interested in transferring to University Park must have completed two years (4 semesters) of full-time college coursework at another institution and/or another Penn State campus by the time of transfer to be eligible for admission.</p>

<p>Note it says “by the time of transfer”</p>

<p>Yep, that’s what I found too, but look at this, [Information</a> for Transfer Students: Penn State University Undergraduate Admissions](<a href=“http://admissions.psu.edu/info/future/transfer/]Information”>http://admissions.psu.edu/info/future/transfer/)</p>

<p>^^ That’s all I don’t understand, but it does specifically say that you need 2 years by the time you transfer at University Park on that other link, so I am going to go with that.</p>

<p>I suppose that University Park just requires more. You can call to double check.</p>

<p>Yea, I guess. Thanks a lot!</p>
