You may choose to apply Test Optional by indicating this preference on your application. Susquehanna uses a holistic review process to evaluate applications for admission.

Transfer

Susquehanna University welcomes transfer applications from students who are in good academic, social and financial standing at their most recent institution. Transfer students come from two- and four-year schools. University regulations require that all baccalaureate candidates take at least 62 semester hours of their total coursework, including 24 of their last 32 semester hours and their major capstone course and any other course a major program may designate, in residence or in approved off-campus programs. At least half the courses applied to a student’s major or minor must also be taken in residence.
