What is a Transfer Student?

At Bloomfield College you are considered a transfer student if you are or have been enrolled in any college-level classes since graduating from high school. We have a dynamic transfer population, and are proud to welcome transfer students from across the state, across the country, and from around the world!

Transfer Admission Requirements:

Bloomfield College operates on a rolling admission basis. General admission students are typically notified of their admission decision within two to four weeks after receipt of all supporting documentation. The priority deadline for applications is March 14th!

Follow these steps to apply:

  1. The completed application, together with a check or postal money order for $35.00 (USD) payable to Bloomfield College, should be returned to the Office of Enrollment Management & Admission.
  2. Official transcripts from all colleges/universities previously attended. Send them to:

Bloomfield College
Office of Enrollment Management & Admission
1 Park Place
Bloomfield , NJ 07003

*Transfer students who have earned less that 15 college level credits must submit their high school transcript, SAT scores, personal essay, and 2 letters of recommendation.

Please note that certain majors may have specialized deadlines! Please contact the Office of Enrollment Management and Admission for further details.

Note to Nursing Transfer Applicants

The deadline to apply to Bloomfield College’s Nursing program and begin nursing classes in the fall semester (*pending completion of ALL pre-requisites and the entrance exam) is May 15th! Please note that unless you must have completed all six pre-requisite courses listed below, and have taken the National League for Nursing Entrance Exam (NLN), scoring within the 40th percentile, you will be accepted only into the college as a Pre-Nursing student.

*Bloomfield College Nursing Pre-Requisites:

Upon completion of the six pre-requisites nursing applicants will need to take the National League for Nursing Entrance Exam (NLN) that is offered to accepted students at Bloomfield College twice a year. Once the scores are determined, the Nursing Department and Advisors will meet in July to select the students to fill the 50 openings.
