What Are the Transfer Requirements for Tippie College of Business?

I'm considering transferring to the Tippie College of Business and want to know what their transfer requirements are. Are there specific courses or GPA benchmarks I should be aware of? Any advice from current students who made the transfer?

Each college has its own unique requirements for transfer students and Tippie College of Business at the University of Iowa isn't an exception. Here's a brief rundown of their requirements:

- A GPA of at least 2.75 prerequisite, UI, and cumulative. Note that students who successfully complete pre-requisite coursework at an accredited institution may apply for transfer.

- Completion of the following pre-business courses or their equivalents: Principles of Microeconomics, Statistics for Business, Rhetoric, Business Computing Essentials, Quantitative Reasoning for Business (or any course that currently fulfills MATH 1380).

Before planning your transfer, it's always suggested to get in touch with the college's admission department to clarify specific course equivalencies and to ensure you meet other transfer requirements. Some students also find it helpful to seek out academic advising at their current institution to create a transition plan.

Coming to the second part of your question about advice from students who transferred to Tippie College of Business, unfortunately, I do not have that information. But in general, transfer students often recommend reaching out proactively to academic advisors, aligning course schedules to meet prerequisite needs, and being proactive in learning about specific major requirements in advance. Also, taking part in student clubs and events can be beneficial to get plugged into the college community and network with peers.

Remember that these requirements are subject to changes, and it's always a good idea to check the official website or contact the admissions department for the most updated information. Best of luck with your transfer process!
