Transfer from within the UMN Twin Cities or Rochester campuses to CSE

Enrollment and Requirements

Enrollment

Must have completed at least one semester in a degree-seeking program at either the Twin Cities or Rochester campus with grades posted.

Admission Process

Admission to CSE is competitive, based on an assessment of the applicant's academic record and potential for success in the chosen degree program.

Primary review factors:

Completion of appropriate prerequisite courses
Applicant’s technical GPA

Additional factors:

Progress toward the intended degree
Cumulative GPA
Grade trends

Important note: Self-advocacy statements and letters of recommendation are not considered in the admission review process.

Prerequisites and Requirements

Prerequisite courses and eligibility requirements differ between degree programs. Carefully review the specific requirements for your program of interest.

Important Considerations

Transferring to a different college within the University of Minnesota Twin Cities does not guarantee future admission to CSE. This may lead to unintended consequences, such as:

Difficulty accessing necessary coursework reserved for CSE students
New or additional admission considerations
Limited access to CSE-specific staff, faculty, and services
Potential delays in degree completion
