Transfer Students

Making the Transition to Boise State

At Boise State, you’re considered a transfer student if you have completed at least one college class for credit after graduating from high school. If you took college level courses during high school you are considered a freshman student with transfer coursework.

As a transfer student, you’ll quickly discover that your smooth transition to Boise State is our top priority. And once you arrive on campus, you’ll uncover new opportunities in each encounter.

Check out the Transfer Student website to see the key elements of the Transfer Process.

Transfer Pathways

The College of Engineering at Boise State University has created transfer pathways to make the transfer process easier for students. Through these pathways, the College of Engineering has created an agreement with other institutions to show a potential pathway to earn a bachelor’s degree after starting your academic journey at your local community college.

When using these pathways, please remember that this is just one route to completing your bachelor’s degree and finishing Blue. If you choose to follow a pathway, be sure to print out (we keep only a four-year plan on the website) and save it to show your academic advisor at Boise State University. By showing your academic advisor the pathway that you have been following, you would be able to follow the requirements in the Boise State University undergraduate catalog for the year your pathway began.
