Students applying for transfer admission to the University of Notre Dame must have satisfied King's College academic guidelines, as well as the following criteria: 

1. Apply to Notre Dame in the Fall of the 3rd Year
2. Cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.3 on a 4.0 scale; those with grade-points between a 3.0 and 3.3 will be considered if they have a strong recommendation from the program director and the relevant department chair as to why the student should be admitted with a grade-point average lower than 3.3;
3. A grade of at least C in all courses;
4. At least 60 semester credit-hours of work that can be transferred to satisfy Notre Dame engineering degree requirements;
5. Recommendation for admission by the program director and the relevant department chair at King's and the Assistant Dean of Academic Affairs, College of Engineering at the University of Notre Dame.

Academic standing within the engineering program will be reviewed each semester by the Program Director. Admission to the University of Notre Dame requires a minimum GPA of 3.30 after five semesters of college study at King’s College. Students will be reviewed to monitor academic progress, provide tutoring and mentoring, make students aware of opportunities to study at University of Notre Dame, maintain interest and enthusiasm in their course of study, and to discuss academic alternatives for those who may fail to maintain the required GPA or prescribed course of study.

The Minimum Progression Requirements include:

Note - No course grade may be lower than a C in order to transfer to Notre Dame
