Incoming Transfer Students

The Franklin College Office of Transfer Academic Services (OTAS) recognizes and values transfer students as an integral part of the UGA student body. Transfer students make up approximately 20% of the nearly 13,000 Franklin College undergraduates.

The Office of Transfer Academic Services provides pre-admissions information for prospective students who are considering applying to UGA’s Franklin College of Arts & Sciences.

Transfer Release Form

All prospective transfer students must complete and email this form to Music Admissions.

Music Theory and Aural Skills

If you have taken college-level music theory at another institution, we will accept those credits if you've earned a C or higher. Students will be expected to take any theory and aural skills level they did not complete at their other school.

Students will meet with our Class Piano Coordinator to determine which level of piano is most appropriate for their skill level.
