Transfer Within JWU

It is possible for undergraduate and graduate students to transfer from one Johnson & Wales campus to another. The following conditions apply:

  • Students must consult with an academic adviser/counselor if they are interested in transferring. 
  • Campus transfers cannot be guaranteed and are subject to space and course availability. Additionally, not all programs of study are available at each campus.
  • Undergraduate students with less than a 2.00 GPA must have their transfer approved by their academic adviser/counselor. Graduate students with less than a 3.00 GPA must have their transfer approved by their academic adviser/counselor.
  • Students with a judicial hold must also be approved by the dean of students. 
  • Students must have submitted verification of high school completion or equivalent (for undergraduate students) or verification of bachelor's degree completion (for graduate students) to be eligible for transfer.
  • Students are required to follow the curriculum required for their major based on their new campus catalog requirements as reflected on their degree audit.
  • It is the student’s responsibility to register for courses at their new campus in jwuLink.
  • It is the student’s responsibility to address housing concerns and proper dress codes at their new campus.
  • Students are required to comply with the medical documentation/immunization requirements of their new campus. A health services hold will be placed on the student’s account if the proper documentation has not been submitted. Students will have no more than one semester to meet these requirements.

  • If you are an international student, after you have discussed your plans to transfer campuses with your Academic Adviser, please consult with your International Student Advisor from your sending school to ensure you have all the required immigration paperwork needed for a SEVIS transfer of campuses.
