Gordon College

TRANSFER STUDENTS

Applicants are considered transfer students if they have enrolled in at least one other college, university or technical college prior to applying to Gordon College irrespective of the college credit received. 

Required Documents

  2. Official Transcripts from all Colleges and Technical Colleges attended
  3. Immunization Record
  4. Official High School Transcript (only required for students with less than 30 transferable semester hours)

All transcripts must be Official in order to gain acceptance.

Failure to list and submit an official transcript from any institution previously attended subjects the applicant to strict disciplinary action.
