Transfer applicants must submit transcripts of all college-level course work even if they do not wish to transfer the credits. Applicants who have grade point averages beneath the College’s standards should include a written explanation for below-standard academic performance. The admission or enrollment of applicants who do not report previous college-level work is subject to revocation.
Transfer courses from regionally accredited institutions with C- grades or above will be accepted by College of the Ozarks for incoming students provided that they are not vocational or remedial in nature. Transfer courses with grades of D and F will not be accepted. Accepted courses may count toward graduation requirements, subject to evaluation by the Registrar and Dean of the College.
