Transfer GPA Cutoffs

Transferring from a community college to a 4-year university typically requires a specific GPA:

  • Open Enrollment State Schools: 2.0 - 2.5 minimum.
  • Competitive State Flagships (e.g., UT Austin, UNC): 3.5+ recommended.
  • Ivy League & Elite Privates: 3.9+ (Transfer admission rates at elite schools are notoriously low).
  • If you are transferring, use our Transfer GPA Calculator to see how your new blended GPA will look.
