Transferring to Central

Transfer students tell us they love the support services we offer that are tailored to their specific needs, creating a seamless transition from community colleges or other universities to Central. More than 1,500 students transfer here every year.

Community college counselors can help students through the transfer process by directing them first to our admissions office, where we'll match the student with someone who can guide them one-on-one through the application process.

Please direct your students to the Transfer Students site we created especially for them.
