When is the best time to apply for admission? An application is valid for one year from the time of application. It is best to
apply anytime after October 1 for Spring, Summer or Fall semester of the following
year. You can submit an application up to one year in advance. However, applications
for the Spring term (beginning in January) are not reviewed until October. Back to the Top
How do I know if my credits will transfer and apply to my UT degree? You can get a preliminary idea of how your credits will transfer and apply to your
major at UT by going online to the u.select website at www.transfer.org, creating an account, and requesting a cross-reference planning guide. Once admitted,
you will receive a transfer credit evaluation from an advisor in the college to which
you were admitted detailing the transfer of credits. Back to the Top
Does UT offer transfer scholarships? Yes! We do offer transfer scholarships/awards, for both in-state and out-of-state students beginning spring or fall semester. Once
admitted you will automatically be considered for admission scholarships, there is
not a separate scholarship application. A completed Free Application for Federal
Student Aid (FAFSA) must be on file for scholarship consideration. Any additional
application requirements are noted in the scholarship/award descriptions. Back to the Top
How and when do I apply for financial aid? The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), can be filed online. Be sure to include The University of Toledo's school code: 003131.
The processing takes about 3 weeks so you will want to submit your FAFSA as soon as
possible, because awarding becomes more limited as time passes. If you have already
submitted the FAFSA or FAFSA renewal form and did not include UT as one of your choices, you
will want to use your PIN to to add UT. The best time to file the FAFSA is every
January/February for the following academic year. Back to the Top

If I transfer to UT does my GPA transfer? Your cumulative transfer GPA will be used in the admission process, however your
previous GPA will not transfer to UT. Your UT GPA will be determined based on your
coursework completed here at UT. However, all college-level coursework (higher education)
GPAs are used for some selective admission programs/majors as well as to calculate
eligibility for honors at the time of graduation. Back to the Top
