Transfer Students
We're delighted that you are considering transferring to Tennessee Tech! We welcome transfer applicants from two- and four-year colleges and universities. If you’ve attended a college or university after graduating from high school, you are considered a transfer student.
College of Engineering Transfer Requirements
In addition to meeting the requirements for admission to the University, transfer students seeking admission to a College of Engineering major must have:
-
- A cumulative higher education GPA of at least 2.0 (excluding credit for remedial and developmental courses); and
- A grade of “C” or higher in a pre-calculus or a higher-level mathematics course that includes a study of the trigonometric identities.
The College of Engineering will assist transfer students in making the transition to Tennessee Tech at any point in their academic programs.
These requirements also apply to current Tech students seeking to change their major
from a non-engineering program to a College of Engineering program. Tennessee Tech’s
engineering curricula are designed so that the needs of students who choose to initially
attend a community college or other college/university not offering a bachelor’s deg
engineering program may be met. Students who complete the first two years of coursework
for an applicable Tennessee Transfer Pathway Agreement at another institution can
complete curricular requirements for a bachelor's degree at Tennessee Tech in approximately
two years.
