Transfer Students

We welcome applications from students who have attended other colleges and universities.

If you are seeking Regular Degree Status Admission, you will be asked to provide official transcripts from previous colleges & universities attended and may need to provide additional information. The admissions staff will contact you after receipt of your application and will let you know what you should provide. For further information please see the admissions section of the Course Catalog.

Evaluating Previous College Transcripts

Transcripts are evaluated, allowable credits determined, and class standing assigned only after the formal application for admission is accepted and the student is registered.

The process for evaluating transcripts is different for students who have already received a Bachelor’s Degree and wish to pursue another degree at NMSU at Alamogordo or NMSU. These students should contact Academic Advising to ask about the procedures for obtaining an evaluation. Students must be Degree-Seeking in order to receive a transcript evaluation.

For more complete information on the evaluation of transcripts please see the Course Catalog or contact the NMSU-A Academic Advising Department at (575) 439-3720.
