Transfer ApplicantsHofstra University accepts transfer applications for the fall and spring semesters. Transfer applicants should complete Hofstra’s Transfer Student Application for Undergraduate Admission or the Common Application. Transfer candidates are considered on a “rolling basis.” While there is no deadline for applications, students are encouraged to apply on or before March 1 for the fall semester and November 1 for the spring semester so as to receive the fullest consideration. Once your application and all supporting credentials are received, your application will be reviewed by our Admission Committee. We will begin notifying transfer applicants of their admission decisions in mid-November for the spring and late February for the fall, then on a rolling basis thereafter.
