Transfer Students
All new students wishing to enter the Terry College of Business at UGA will be admitted into the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences as pre-business majors. Students must apply and meet entrance criteria prior to entering the Terry College of Business. For additional questions, please check with the Office of Undergraduate Programs. Admission standards for transfer students to a major in the Terry College may vary from those standards set by other schools and colleges within the university. Acceptance to the Terry College is contingent upon the student's currently submitted transcript and transfer GPA.
The specific credit for work done at other institutions which will apply toward the BBA degree is determined by UGA Admissions Transfer Credit Evaluators. Establishing a transfer transcript does not necessarily mean all transfer credit will be accepted toward a BBA degree.
