Transfer Steps to Enrollment

Meet All Deadlines

If you miss an mini传媒 deadline, we will withdraw your application for admission, and you will not be able to attend mini传媒 for the term you originally intended. If you have an extreme hardship or unusual circumstance that may cause you to miss one of our deadlines, contact admissions@sjsu.edu immediately.

If admitted, you must complete the Next Steps Intent to Enroll process by the date posted on your Mymini传媒 鈥淭o Do List鈥.
