Requirements for Transfer Admission
At Saint Louis University, we make transferring easy. Once you complete your transfer application, we will automatically review your application for admission and consider you for financial aid. Transfer applications are reviewed on a rolling basis so you don’t have to worry about missing deadlines.
Completing Your Transfer Application
Complete SLU’s online application for admission at slu.edu/apply. SLU also accepts the Transfer Common App and the Coalition App/Scoir.
The Accelerated Nursing program requires the Nursing CAS.
Submit copies of transcripts from every college or university where you’ve attempted credit. This includes original transcripts for college-level coursework you completed during high school. Unofficial transcripts may be accepted for initial admission review. However, official transcripts may be required for admission review if SLU is unable to verify the authenticity of the documents. Official transcripts sent directly from the institution to SLU are required prior to transfer credit evaluation and enrollment. SLU prefers all transcripts be sent electronically to transfer@slu.edu. If your institution is unable to do so, they may be mailed to:
Office of Admission
1 N. Grand Blvd.
St. Louis, MO 63103.

High School Transcript
If you have completed fewer than 24 credit hours at the time you apply for admission, you must submit your high school transcript with graduation date.
An official transcript sent directly from your high school to SLU is required prior to enrollment.
International Transfer Student Requirements
All international applicants to SLU are required to demonstrate their English proficiency by submitting scores from standardized tests taken to prepare for college such as the TOEFL, IELTS, PTE, SAT or ACT.
If you do not meet SLU’s direct entry requirements, we encourage you to apply to the Pathway or English Language programs offered by INTO Saint Louis University.
Filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is only required if you wish to be considered for need-based financial aid.
You can file the FAFSA online at fafsa.ed.gov. The FAFSA priority is Feb. 1.
