Transfer Admission Requirements

Transfer applicants desiring entry into a transfer degree program, who are within five years of their high school graduation date, or the graduation date of their appropriate age group, and those within that same range who have not yet earned the equivalent of thirty (30) semester hours of transferable college credit, must meet the following criteria:

  • Hold a general diploma from a high school that is accredited by a regional accrediting association (such as the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools), or the Georgia Accrediting Commission or from a high school regulated by a public school system and state department of education, as evidenced by submission of an official high school transcript with date of graduation
  • Have a minimum high school grade point average of 2.0 (as calculated by GHC based on grades earned in English, math, natural science, social science and foreign language coursework)
  • Meet current learning support placement standards
  • Be re-admissible to the last college, university or technical school attended (if applicable)

Applicants who transfer 30 or more credit hours are not held to freshman admission standards, but must be eligible to return to their previous institution. Students dismissed from their current institution must sit out the allotted time (one semester for first dismissal, one year for second dismissal, and five years for third dismissal) before being considered for admission to Georgia Highlands College.
