When I applied as a transfer, I got acceptedJul 30 2015Finance
When I applied as a transfer, I got accepted two weeks later once I submitted all of my materials. All I needed to submit was my college and high school transcripts. (I didn't need my SAT scores). As far as my transfer credits went, everything transferred, except for one class. However, if you get the syllabus from the class and submit it to your college for review, you can appeal the class. For me atleast, it worked out and I'm on track to still graduate on time. If you're transferring from another college, you definitely need a strong GPA (esp. for Fox) because spots are very limited. Roughly 40% of the applicants who applied to transfer into Fox were accepted the year I transferred in.
