Apply as Transfer Student
We are committed to making your Baylor journey as seamless as possible and helping you achieve your academic goals. With three convenient ways to apply, our transfer application is not only quick and simple, but entirely free!
goBAYLOR is where you can access our free online application. It will also guide you through the admissions process. If you're a first-time user, create an account.
If you're using the Common App to save time applying to your top colleges, be sure to add Baylor University to your list of schools.
We prefer applicants apply through the Baylor Online App or Common App and do not prioritize one over the other. While we do accept applications via ApplyTexas, most applicants apply through the Baylor Online App or Common App.
Note: Applicants via Common App or ApplyTexas will receive separate emailed instructions on how to activate their goBAYLOR account. Please allow 24-48 hours to process.
