Other/Unique transfer policies: Typically, decisions for admission to Penn State’s various programs and locations are made on the basis of the applicant’s requested academic program, space availability, and the quality of the applicant’s credentials in relation to those of other applicants. The number of qualified transfer applicants usually exceeds the number of available location and program spaces; therefore, satisfaction of the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission.
