Department of Communication

We Love Transfer Students!

No matter where you used to be, we are grateful that you are learning with us now.

In fact, of the Department of Communication’s 500+ majors and minors, roughly 40% are transfer students. Whether you are coming to us from a community college, the armed services, or another four-year university, we welcome you to the team.

We are also proud to welcome our transfer students coming to us from international settings, or returning to college after joining the workforce, or landing on campus after spending time incarcerated. As part of our social justice mission and community-building ethic, all are welcome here.

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.
