Transfer Admissions

Welcome Transfer Students!

A transfer student is a student who has registered at or attended any college, university, technical or proprietary school since graduating from high school, but has not completed a bachelor's degree.

You are still considered a transfer student even if you don't think your previous credits will transfer to Kent State.

Transfer Application Requirements:

$30 nonrefundable admission fee
The nonrefundable admission feel will increase to $40 for Spring 2014 applicants.

Official transcripts from every college or university you attended after high school (or after receiving your GED), even if you feel credit will not be transferable. Failure to report previously attended colleges or universities is falsification and may result in denial of admission or dismissal from the university.

Official high school transcript or official GED score report

ACT or SAT scores
Scores are not required if you have been out of high school for 3 years or if you are over the age of 21.

Official Transcripts
Transcripts are considered official only if they arrive in a sealed envelope from a high school, college or university. Transcripts issued directly to the student will be accepted only if the envelope is unopened. Once the envelope seal has been broken by someone other than a university employee, the transcript becomes unofficial.

Official transcripts should be sent to the following address:

Office of Admissions
Kent State University at Stark
6000 Frank Avenue NW
North Canton OH 44720

Questions regarding transcripts should be addressed to Linda Harsh at 330-244-3254 or lcharsh@kent.edu.
