At MSOE, we define a transfer student as someone who has either been out of high school for more than two years or who has attended another college or university. Here are MSOE’s requirements for transfer admission:

• High school transcripts and ACT/SAT scores are not required if you have completed 24 or more college credits.
• If you do not have college credit but have been out of high school for more than five years, then you need to submit your high school transcripts but do not need to submit ACT/SAT scores.
