Admissions Process:
Transfer Students

Important academic factors considered by Admissions include cumulative grade point average, academic performance in those courses related to business (accounting, economics, mathematics, computer science), and degree of difficulty of courses taken to date as a demonstration of the student’s general ability and desire. Also, skills and personal characteristics such as leadership, communication, work experience, and time management are considered as demonstrated through extracurricular activities and application essays.

Students Not Enrolled at U.Va. (Transfer Applicants)

Applicants enrolled at schools other than the University must apply to the University of Virginia as a transfer student and should indicate application to McIntire. It is strongly recommended that students complete all prerequisites before transferring to the University and transfer should be made directly to McIntire as a third-year student. The University of Virginia: Transfer Information web site has more information about this process.

Students who are currently enrolled at a Virginia community college with an interest in applying to McIntire should take the suggested courses listed in the Prerequisites-Equivalents at Virginia Community Colleges.

McIntire Admissions Committee's Review Process

The McIntire Undergraduate Admissions Committee is composed of four faculty members. Each faculty member separately reviews and makes independent decisions on each applicant. After the independent reviews, the group meets to reach consensus on each applicant.

Some of the evaluative criteria used in the review process are listed below.

Grades
  • Load per semester

  • Difficulty of courses

  • Trend in performance

  • Grades in prerequisites (accounting, economics, math, computer science)
