Transfer Application Forms

Completed transfer application (Transfer Application, print version, or Common Application)

Your essay may be typed and sent directly to transfer@springfield.edu if you have not already submitted it. The essay should be a statement that addresses your reasons for transferring and the objectives you hope to achieve.

We must receive an official high school transcript (or proof of equivalency) and official transcripts from all colleges attended. All transcripts must be official copies and can be delivered either via mail to 263 Alden Street, Springfield, MA 01109, or electronically to transfer@springfield.edu. Please call your high school's guidance office to have an official copy of your transcript sent to us. Most college transcripts can be requested online; check with your school.

Update: As of March 23, 2020, we are able to accept unofficial transcripts and screen shots in lieu of official transcripts at this time. They can be submitted by mail, but email is preferred. We must receive official copies before August 15, 2020. 

The academic evaluation form or letter of recommendation can be from anyone except for a family member, but should be academic. The letter of recommendation or academic evaluation form can be sent via mail or electronically to transfer@springfield.edu as long as it comes directly from the author, not the applicant.

Update: As of March 23, 2020, we are able to temporarily waive this requirement, but you are highly encouraged to submit a letter of recommendation if you are able to. They can be submitted by mail, but email is preferred. We must receive an official letter directly from the author before August 15, 2020.  

To complete the transfer college report, fill out section one and scan and email it to the Dean’s Office or equivalent at your former school(s) and ask them to complete section two and email it to transfer@springfield.edu. We recommend calling your former school to find out who completes these forms so that you can send it directly to the correct person. This form MUST come directly from the person who completes the form. This form cannot be submitted by the applicant.   

Update: As of March 23, 2020, we are able to temporarily waive this requirement, but you are highly encouraged to submit your Transfer College Report(s) if you are able to. They can be submitted by mail, but email is preferred. We must receive all outstanding Transfer College Reports before August 15, 2020. 

Please log on to your College Board account to download the pdf of your official score report and email it to transfer@springfield.edu if applying to a teacher preparation program or Athletic Training, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, or Physician's Assistant programs.

If you plan to apply for need-based financial aid in the 20-21 academic year, it is highly encouraged that you complete your 20-21 FAFSA before you complete your admissions application. If you have already completed your 20-21 FAFSA, please make sure to add Springfield College to it. Financial aid for students is packaged and awarded after acceptance to Springfield.
