Transfer
Transfer students who have attempted at least 30 semester hours in courses at accredited institutions will be automatically admitted to SIUE and eligible for Direct Entry to the Mathematical Studies major in the College of Arts & Sciences provided they have earned a minimum cumulative 2.0 GPA (4.0 scale) in coursework at the previous accredited school(s) attended.
Transfer students who have attempted fewer than 30 semester hours in courses at accredited institutions must meet transfer admission criteria AND first-time freshmen criteria to be automatically admitted to SIUE and eligible for Direct Entry to the Mathematical Studies major in the College of Arts & Sciences.
Courses listed in the course equivalency guide will be transferred automatically and will apply toward degree requirements as appropriate, provided a grade of C or better was earned. For courses not included on the list, decisions are made on an individual basis. The student must provide an official detailed description of the course to the chair of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. Students must earn at least 30 hours in residence at SIUE.
Pre-registration advisement from a faculty mentor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics is required for all majors.
