Students who have earned a transferrable associate's degree (AA, AALT, AS, AGS or ASLT) from an accredited institution are eligible for transfer to ULM.
How to Transfer
1. Create an Admissions Account.
Applicants will need to create a ULM Admissions Account, which is needed to access and/or check the status of your application. Please keep the username/password you create for future reference. If you already have created a ULM Admissions Account, simply login to your account and apply.
2. Create Application.
The admissions application takes less than 10 minutes to complete. You will need to provide demographic and personal information, academic plans, and any high schools and/or colleges or universities you have previously and/or currently attending. All information you provide is encrypted and transmitted to ULM in a secure manner. There is a $20 application fee for undergraduate U.S. applicants. Application fees are waived for active U.S. military personnel and U.S. military veterans. ULM accepts MasterCard, VISA, Discover, and American Express. All application fees are non-refundable.
3. Submit your transcripts.
For faster service, ULM accepts e-scripts. Please use docman@ulm.edu as the recipient. If e-script is not an option at your prior institution, you may send by mail to:

Will my financial aid from FAFSA follow me to ULM?
Students who are transferring to ULM need to add ULM to their FAFSA for that appropriate year. Our school code is 002020. If you are enrolling for Spring 2023, you would make this correction to the 2022-2023 FAFSA. This can take up to two weeks for ULM to process.
Students will also need to contact their school they are transferring from and make sure they cancel any pending aid that ULM will need to apply for the appropriate term.
What if I cannot come for the term I applied for?
You can request for your term to be changed at https://www.ulm.edu/changerequest/.
Please note that you can only change your term up to a year from the initial application.
