*If you are in a joint admissions' program and meet all of the conditions, simply fill out an "Intent to Enroll Form" (available from your community college transfer office or online), and submit your transcripts. You will not be required to write an essay or pay an application fee. The priority deadline is March 1st for fall entrance and November 1st for spring. Applications are accepted after the deadline on a space available basis.
You must submit transcripts from all institutions you have attended, even if you do not think the transcripts are relevant to your application. Failure to do so could result in a suspension from the institution. All transcripts from previous schools must be submitted before an application will be reviewed. Be sure to request your final transcript once you have completed your last semester. This will not happen automatically – only you can authorize the release of your transcript. Most institutions charge a transcript fee. Your transcript(s) must arrive in a signed/sealed envelope from your transfer institution. You may hand carry or send them with your application if you have a copy, as long as they have been unopened.
Note: Your admission’s decision will be based on your grade point average (GPA) at the last institution you attended. Once you are admitted to Bridgewater, your GPA will restart based on your courses taken here.Transfer Tips:
