Explore the transfer process

At Arizona State University, we take a student-centered approach to transferring to ensure the process is smooth and you have a clear path to graduation. To start your transfer, you’ll need to complete the online application, pay an application fee and send transcripts to ASU. You can also speak with an enrollment coach about how your credits may transfer.

Finish what you started

You’re considered a transfer student at ASU if you are looking to complete a bachelor’s degree but already have 12 or more transferable credits post-high school.

You must also meet one of the following requirements to transfer to ASU Online:

  • Graduated from high school.
  • Earned a GED.
  • Are in progress toward an associate degree or have completed your associate degree.

ASU Online is a great school to transfer to because of the diversity of our degrees, world-class faculty and national recognition. We also offer a robust suite of student services to guide you through the transfer process.

open-quote
I’m a television producer and have been in my career for over eight years now. I decided to go back to school to get my degree in political science because it’s something that I’m passionate about. I’m still on location shooting shows full time, as well as being a full-time student. ASU Online provides me with the flexibility to do both.
