Your next steps are:

1. Request that your school send your transcripts to Oral Roberts University  by email or mail at 7777 S Lewis Ave, Tulsa, OK 74171.
2. Watch your email for your admissions decision and additional scholarship information.

Your application and course-by-course evaluation will be reviewed by the Admissions Committee. Automatic scholarship consideration is given upon acceptance to ORU.

International students transferring to ORU from another educational institution (college, university or intensive English institute) in the U.S. who plan to change schools must complete a SEVIS Transfer Request Form after your application for admission. This form will indicate your current visa status and SEVIS transfer date.

It is the student's responsibility to maintain his or her F-1 student status and to complete the instructions below.

• Once you receive an acceptance letter notify your current university of your intent to transfer.
• Complete the top portion of the SEVIS Transfer Request Form prior to your acceptance to Oral Roberts University.
• Have the Designated School Official (international student advisor), at your current institution complete the bottom portion of the Sevis Transfer Request Form.
• After you and your current school have determined the date to have your SEVIS record electronically released to ORU, promptly return this completed form to Oral Roberts University.
• After the release date, ORU will produce a Form I-20. Unfortunately, ORU CANNOT produce an ORU Form I-20 until after the release date submitted by your current school.

• In order to be considered a transfer student, you must have completed 15 or more college credit hours from an accredited post-secondary institution after high school graduation.
• Your first step is to submit a course-by-course evaluation of your transcripts for all coursework completed after your secondary education. You can use IEE to complete that step.
• Once you have your course-by-course evaluation, you will have a US equivalent GPA. International transfer applicants must have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale) or higher to be considered for full admission. If you have attended more than one institution, the GPA received from each individual university will be combined to calculate your cumulative GPA.
