could a transfer here after two years would you think it would be better to just start here
  • 9999+
    Hi, Chela. It is often easier for the student to start out at Full Sail as opposed to transferring. Since Full Sail is unlike many other universities, credits do not transfer the same way, and it can end up being more difficult for the student as well as costly. For more information, check out our admissions page: http://www.fullsail.edu/admissions.

      We offer something that is similiar: it is called Behind the Scenes (or BTS) and it is a 4 hour long tour that takes you all over campus and into classrooms, labs, and studios. Afterwards, you are able to speak directly with admissions representatives regarding the specific program you are interested in. For more information, please visit: http://www.fullsail.edu/admissions/visit-us/behind-the-scenes-tour. There are also daily tours that you are able to participate in as well.
