All incoming transfer students admitted to the Trulaske College of Business are admitted as general business students in the lower level. They will need to apply to the upper level typically within their second semester of being on campus. They will work with the advising office on that timeline. Only nine hours of business coursework (Accounting, Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Management, and Marketing) at the 3000-level or above can be transferred for the degree requirements. Any questions regarding how credits transfer towards the degree requirements, please email our recruitment team at business@missouri.edu.

Students must have a minimum UM GPA of Record of 2.600 (3.000 for Accountancy) to apply for an upper level program. This GPA does not guarantee admission. Refer to Upper Level Admission Information
