Transfer Day

At Transfer Day, our goal is that every student who attends will leave with a better understanding of the CBU education, knowing which units transfer, and how long it would take to graduate as a Lancer.

This event is exclusively for transfer students and high school dual-enrollment students who are interested in the traditional undergraduate daytime program at CBU.

Make your move to CBU!

Event Dates:
Friday, March 3

FAQs

Will this be an on campus or virtual event?
Transfer Day is only being offered on campus on the following date:
- - Friday, March 3, 2023
Can I send in international transcripts?

We will only be evaluating U.S. transcripts at this event; unfortunately, we are unable to evaluate international transcripts during Transfer Day.
What happens if I don't send in all of my transcripts?

We will still be able to evaluate the transcripts we do have (if any), but you will not receive a comprehensive evaluation. As a result, it may be challenging to determine how long it would take to graduate from CBU.
If I've already been accepted to CBU, do I need to resubmit all of my transcripts?

Nope! You will not need to resubmit them to us (unless new courses have posted). We'll be able to make an evaluation based off the transcripts you've already submitted during the application process. If you're unsure if you've submitted all of your transcripts to us, double check with your admissions counselor.
What should I do if I need to edit my registration?

No problem! Use this edit registration link to edit your guest count, reschedule to a different date, or cancel your registration.
