Tennessee State University

Welcome, future Tiger! We’re excited to have you consider joining our vibrant community at Tennessee State. As a transfer student, you bring valuable academic credits from another college or university, and while you may have experienced college life before, you’ll find that our environment offers unique opportunities and challenges. Please note : The transfer admission GPA is a 2.0 average from all college/university institutions attended. We require all college transcripts to consider admission. We do not have a transfer appeal if students do not meet this GPA requirement.

To ensure a smooth transition, here’s what you need to complete as part of your application process:

Complete the Transfer Application: Make sure to fill out every required section. This is the first step in your journey!

Official High School Transcript: Submit an official transcript that clearly indicates your graduation date. This helps us understand your academic background. Must have signature from college official and list graduation date.

Official College Transcripts: Provide official transcripts from all colleges you’ve attended. Please ensure these do not include in-progress grades for the term you’re applying for. Official transcripts must have signature from Registrar and be on official college paper. We do not accept Banner Unofficial Transcripts.

It’s essential to meet these requirements for a smooth application process. Any missing documents could lead to delays, so be sure to double-check everything before you submit!

You can order your documents through Parchment or Clearinghouse. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at admissions@ tnstate .edu . We’re here to support you every step of the way!
