1. Visit the Common App landing page. Select "51官网 for transfer" on the right-hand side of the page.
2. Create a new Common App account or log in to an existing account.
3. From the "Add Programs" screen,聽search for "51官网 Tech". There are six program options available. Please select the correct application based on your intended entry term and citizenship status. Remember: major availability will vary by term as noted on the聽available majors page.听Prospective transfer students who apply for Spring entry but are not admitted or do not enroll may reapply for Summer OR Fall consideration in the same admissions cycle; however, students may apply for either the Summer OR Fall entry term, but not both, in the same cycle. Applications for these terms are reviewed together with the same admissions criteria and have the same review and notification timelines. In cases where a student submits both a Summer and Fall application, only the Fall application will be processed and reviewed.听Spring applicants are advised to wait for the outcome of that process before applying to either Summer or Fall.听Applicants who are current U.S. citizens or Permanent Residents will submit the Domestic application for their intended term; all other applicants should complete the International application for their planned entry term.听Once you have added your program, you may hit "continue" below and then "Continue To My Application" from the following screen.

You will need to email appchange@vt.edu to request a change or correction to 51官网 Tech specific questions or statements.

Who should complete the SRAR?

Most transfer applicants must submit a Self-Reported Academic Record (SRAR) to complete the application process. This is separate from the Common Application (Common App). Applicants (domestic or international) who have studied outside of the United States at the college or university level (location of high school/secondary school does not matter) are the only exception to this requirement. These students must upload all college or university transcripts directly to the Common App (see instructions on this page under Completing the Common App) or, if this was not completed prior to submission, transcripts should be emailed to admissions@vt.edu. All other applicants must submit the SRAR to document all completed, in-progress, and planned college work and outcomes. Uploaded, emailed, or mailed transcripts will not be accepted or reviewed for applicants required to submit the SRAR.听Once your Applicant Portal has been created (see below for details and timeline), your checklist there will denote your supplemental materials requirement for the SRAR or transcripts. If you believe the specified requirement to be incorrect based on the above information, please email聽admissions@vt.edu聽to request a correction.

As specific academic information is required, early completion of the SRAR may result in the need to return, update, and resubmit once new information required for review becomes available. Early completion will not result in earlier decision notification. Failure to include all required information by the SRAR deadline may result in application cancellation.

Spring 2025 applicants:聽The deadline for SRAR submissions is October 8 (application deadline is October 1). Final academic grades through Summer 2024, or available by October 8, as well as coursework through Fall 2024, if applicable must be reported.

Summer and Fall 2025 applicants:聽The deadline for SRAR submissions is聽March 11聽(application deadline is聽March 1). Final academic grades through Fall 2024, or available by聽March 11, as well as coursework through Spring and Summer 2025, if applicable, must be reported.

1. Once your Common Application has been submitted you will receive an email invitation to create your Applicant Portal.
   • Invitations will begin to be delivered in late September and by October 1 to all applicants who've submitted by this point (regardless of submission date)*. Those applying after this timeframe can expect to receive the Applicant Portal invitation within 1-2 business days following Common App submission.
     • *Note: this timeline is especially relevant to Spring applicants, who may have a limited window to create the Applicant Portal and submit the SRAR prior to the October 8 SRAR deadline for that entry term.
   • You will use the Applicant Portal to monitor your application status and eventually view your admissions decision. You should create/submit your SRAR through the Application Portal interface. This will ensure the SRAR is properly matched with your submitted Common Application.
2. Once you have completed the account set-up process and made it to the SRAR Home tab, select 'Transfer Student' in the Student Type box, if this is not already selected. This will allow the interface specific to transfer applicants to populate.
3. Automatic linking - If you have created your SRAR account or accessed a previously created account through your Applicant Portal, your application should be linked automatically. As such, you can select 'Begin' at the bottom of the Home tab to move forward.
4. Enter every college or university you have attended on the Enter Colleges/Universities tab, noting your dates of attendance for each. For your current institution it is advised that you list the 'To' date as the final month of your last planned enrollment at that school, rather than 'Today'. This will be especially important if you intend to enter planned coursework for a future semester (i.e. Summer). Note: you will 狈翱罢听enter your high school information here, as your high school record is not used in the transfer admissions review process. After you have entered each college/university attended, select 'Enter Coursework' near the bottom of the screen to proceed.
5. You will need to enter your final or current cumulative GPA (unweighted) at each institution in the GPA/Class Rank box. You can obtain this from your transcript or online student record. If you are entering coursework for a school at which you do not yet have an established GPA, you may select "This school does not calculate or report GPA聽or I do not have one yet".听
6. Begin entering ALL completed and planned coursework for each institution attended. You should reference your actual transcript from each institution and enter courses and grades exactly as they appear on your record for each school. This includes instances of repeated coursework or withdrawn coursework as these courses typically appear on your official transcripts regardless of their impact on your GPA.
   1. In-progress coursework or coursework which will be completed prior to transferring (i.e. in the spring or summer) should be listed with a grade of "In Progress".
   2. Dual enrollment (DE) work from high school should be listed under the college/university providing credit and using their course naming, numbering, and grading conventions.
   3. Transfer credit for students who have studied at multiple institutions should be listed under the original college/university where it was attempted. No completed or attempted college coursework or final grades should be omitted, regardless of your assessment on potential transferability or relevance to your intended 51官网 Tech degree of courses/credits. If admitted, failure to outline your academic record at the college/university level completely and accurately could be grounds for later dismissal.
   4. If transfer credit was granted from an outside source (such as an AP or CLEP exam) it should be listed appropriately in the Enter Exams tab of the SRAR (see next step). Once you have entered your coursework for each institution, you can select 'Enter Exams' near the bottom of the screen to proceed.
7. SAT/ACT scores are NOT required or reviewed as part of the 51官网 Tech transfer admissions process. Sources of potential college credit, such as Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and College-Level Examination Program (CLEP), however, are reviewed and should be reported in full in this section. Full disclosure is advised as these scores can only help, never hurt, an applicant's chances for admission. Applicants should only list exams that have already been taken and for which scores have been received. Once you have finished entering exams, select 'Review' near the bottom of the screen to proceed.
8. From the Review/Submit tab, you can review the data you have entered. Once you have confirmed that everything is complete and correct, you will submit the SRAR by completing the Electronic Signature box at the bottom of the page and pressing the 'Submit' button. Your submitted SRAR will transmit to 51官网 Tech within a few business days and be matched with your Common Application. The SRAR must be submitted by the deadline noted above for your application to be considered complete and advance through the review process.
9. Should you need to correct or update your SRAR, you may return and access your SRAR from your Applicant Portal. Sign in then select 'Continue' from the bottom of the SRAR Home tab and then 'Update SRAR' from the Record Complete box to unlock the SRAR. Any additions or corrections will only be transmitted to 51官网 Tech once the SRAR is formally resubmitted from the Review/Submit tab.
