I recently applied to OSU for spring 2019 and I am now into my sophomore year. I finished with a 3.16 gpa at a community college with 31 credits. My major is still undecided and I put that on my app and I did write a personal statement on my OSU app. I was wondering if anyone knows what kind of chances I have of getting in?
I should also mention that i took 15 credits at columbus state community college then moved back to VA and took 16 credits and my CC’s said OSU received all my transcripts 08/20/2018. Does anyone know how long it takes OSU to send a decision?

bump
nvm got in
How long did it take for you to get your decision after submitting your application???
a little over a week
Hello;
So I just completed an application to transfer to OSU for spring 2019 semester. I am transferring with a GPA of 3.168 (Calc screwed up my GPA, got a C) and 43 credit hours completed at the Univeristy of Akron. However, I had a family situation occur back home in Egypt. So I am studying my fall 2018 semester here in Egypt. OSU asked me to send an enrollment verification letter form Egypt and they will make an admission decision based of my transcripts at University of Akron. I am a Us Citizen and Ohio resident. I am just really nervous that I will not be accepted because of my GPA; any advice on people who got admitted to OSU as a transfer student. Do I have a chance of being admitted. I want to go to OSU for their industrial engineering program!!!
you will most likely get into OSU with that gpa but for the school of engineering you need at least a 3.2 I believe.
Really Damn! What happens if I am not accepted into the school of engineering
You should be fine actually, I think the gpa requirement is a 3.0.

Oh really!!! So I have a big chance of being accepted; how soon did you find out and did they email you first
My application right now says evaluation is that a good thing
Hi I’m a freshman and I applied to transfer for my spring semester on October 1st? Do I have a good chance of getting in?
@SMOHAME2 Im wondering same thing…also if I submitted Oct 1 and it says “under evaluation” how long is it til I get a decision?
I emailed admissions and asked about the admissions timeline for transfers. They typically take about 6-8 weeks after all required materials are received to review the application and post a decision. I had everything in on Sept 10th, and am still awaiting a decision, myself.
Hi! Did you ever receive a decision? I’m in the same predicament, I’m going into my 4th week of waiting for a decision since it’s the status has changed to evaluation.
@smohame2 @444444 Hi! I know this conversation was a long time ago so you probably won’t see this… but did you get in for the spring semester? I’m going to try and do the same thing this semester, so I want to know if my chances are good as well.
