A student is considered a transfer student if they have completed any college coursework from a post-secondary institution after graduating from high school. To be considered for admission, a student must have achieved a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.75 in common transferable courses and meet a level of math proficiency consistent with the standards set by CSB and SJU. A student who has not yet completed 28 semester credits will be evaluated on both high school and college performance. Students who have credits earned through Post-Secondary Enrollment Option should apply as high school senior applicants.

CSB and SJU will work with you to make sure you are receiving the appropriate credits. Each case is evaluated on an individual basis. CSB and SJU will accept credits from another college that is regionally accredited, is a class is 100 level or greater, and where a similar course is offered at CSB and SJU.

* CSB and SJU accept completion of the MnTC or AA degree from a regionally accredited Minnesota college as a block to satisfy our foundational Integrations Curriculum requirements. There are additional Integrations Curriculum requirements that remain to be completed, many that are often attached to other general education or major/minor courses. In order to receive credit for those requirements, the courses must have been completed with a grade of ‘C’ or higher. In addition, we have developed 2+2 pathway options in a number of disciplines and continue to expand those options.
