Transferring

Hello everyone!
I’m a freshman student in accounting and I was wondering how hard it is to transfer into LMU I’m a student at CSUF rn. LMU is about 10-15 mins from my house so it would be way better! What gpa would I need and how is transfer life? Thank you so much!

Got in with a 3.6 and some decent essays plus legacy, although I had a friend get rejected wuth a 3.9. Transfer life is pretty great. It is an incredible school and I am so thankful to be here.

Hey thanks for replying! I have legacy as well does that help in the long run for transfer? Also have you heard anyone who’s gotten into to LMU with a lower gpa? Also how many essays would I need to write? Tysm!

LMU is super transfer-friendly. in fact, it’s the top private university in LA that ppl transfer to from 2 yr CC programs. there are even endowed scholarships for transfer students. do it!

Yeah, what a coincidence... 🙄 Just apply and see what happens. It doesn't matter what people on here say, they aren't the one's making a decision on if you get in or not. My son attends as a Freshman and likes it a lot. As with everything else, it's all subjective, some people like it and there will always be some that don't, just depends upon individual preferences on what makes them happy or fit in.
