Which colleges have a 2.0 GPA transfer requirement?

I'm looking for colleges that accept transfer students with a GPA of 2.0. Does anyone have recommendations for schools that have more lenient GPA requirements for transfers?

Absolutely, there are a number of colleges that have relatively lenient GPA requirements for transfer students. Please keep in mind that although admission might be possible with a 2.0, a higher GPA might still be necessary for competitive programs or for certain types of financial aid. Here are a few options:

1. Arizona State University - Their general admission requirement for transfer students is a cumulative GPA of 2.0 in all transferable courses.

2. University of Montana - With a cumulative GPA of 2.0, transfer students may be considered for admission, though certain competitive majors might require a higher GPA.

3. Eastern Oregon University - This college considers transfer applicants with a minimum 2.0 GPA.

4. State University of New York (SUNY) Buffalo State - Transfer students with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher, from all previously attended institutions combined, may be considered for admission.

5. Western Illinois University - Their transfer student admission requirement is a 2.0 GPA for students with 24 or more semester hours of transferable coursework.

6. Evergreen State College - They have relatively flexible admission criteria for transfer students, typically accepting those with a 2.0 GPA or higher.

Each of these universities may have different requirements for specific programs or majors that may require a GPA higher than 2.0. It's always a good idea to communicate with the admissions offices directly in order to gain the most accurate information. Good luck with your transfer applications!
