Transferring

Transferring to IU East from another IU campus

If you would like to transfer here from another IU campus or just take a few classes here, we make it easy with an intercampus transfer.

Before you initiate a transfer, meet with your academic advisor to discuss how degree and enrollment requirements vary between IU campuses and programs.

There are two ways to transfer:

Visiting intercampus transfer

If you want to take classes here for a semester or two, but do not plan to graduate here, you’ll want to apply for a visiting intercampus transfer.

Meet with your advisor to make sure any classes you take meet your home campus degree requirements.

Permanent intercampus transfer

If you plan to complete your degree requirements and graduate here, you’ll want to apply for a permanent intercampus transfer. 

Meet with your advisor to discuss your academic progress and how to make the most of your transfer.

Here are the deadlines for submitting the intercampus transfer application:

IU students approved for a visiting intercampus transfer are responsible for any and all tuition and fees associated with class registration at IU East. 

Please note that credit hours taken at IU East as a visiting intercampus transfer student will be charged at the per credit hour rate and will not count in the banded tuition at your home campus.

Distance education rates apply to students who are in approved distance education programs only.

If you would like to transfer to or take classes at a different IU campus, you'll also complete an intercampus transfer. Look for intercampus transfer information on the website of the campus you intend to transfer to for their deadlines and requirements.

Withdraw from IU East

If you've already registered for classes, but have decided to transfer instead, withdraw from IU East ASAP to avoid being charged for tuition and fees.

Clear your holds

Your new college or university will require your transcript, but your transcript cannot be released if there are any holds on your account. Make sure you're in the clear.

Get a copy of your transcript

You may need an official copy of your transcript sent to your new school & you should get a copy of your unofficial transcript for your records.
