Welcome Transfer Students

Whether you are coming to us from a community college, the armed services, another four-year university, or elsewhere, we welcome you to team COMM. For most transfer students, the first and most important question is how to transfer previous credits into the CU system. We make this process easy by assigning you a college-level advisor, who will work with you to map out a route toward graduation, and a department-level advisor, who will work with you to map out how to fulfill your major requirements. Learn More Here!
