The deadline to apply for Internal Transfer for FALL 2024: Wed, December 18, 2024
Internal Transfer Candidates: Students enrolled in other day division programs may apply to transfer to the Olin School. Transfer applications are reviewed at the end of each semester for entry to Olin in the following spring or fall. New students to the University must spend their first semester enrolled in the school which admitted them.
Minimum criteria in order to be considered as an internal transfer for the Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) degree program includes:
- An academic record that supports that conclusion that the student will be able to complete the BSBA degree within a typical time frame.
- Successful completion of Calculus II for credit is a requirement for admission to our program. Students may be currently enrolled in Calculus II at the time of the request to transfer providing the student will have completed the course and earned a letter grade prior to admission to Olin.
- Students are expected to have completed at least two business (BU) professional core courses for credit through Olin. For Olin courses, the course department code will start with a B (i.e. B54 MEC 292 Global Economy*).
- You must be in good standing in your current division.
* L11 ECON 1021 is approved as a substitution for the B54 MEC 292 BSBA degree requirement, but does not qualify as a professional core course for internal transfer as it is not a BU course.
Students interested in declaring a dual degree with Olin must also meet the internal transfer criteria listed above. Please meet with an on-call advisor to discuss the dual degree declaration and process.
Minimum criteria in order to be considered for the Bachelor of Science in Business and Computer Science (BUCS) degree program:
- Minimum GPA of 3.5 overall and in all business and computer science classes.
- Completion of a minimum of 2 business and 2 computer science courses that are required in the BUCS curriculum.
- Successful completion of Calculus II for credit is a requirement for admission to our program. Students may be currently enrolled in Calculus II at the time of the request to transfer providing the student will have completed the course and earned a letter grade prior to admission to BUCS.
- Ability to complete degree in a timely manner.
