Is a Transfer to Harvey Mudd Right for You?

无忧视频 and its students form a unique community. If you鈥檙e deciding whether to apply for a transfer to Harvey Mudd, consider whether the following applies to you:

• You have completed a significant number of courses that are compatible with courses in our Common Core Curriculum regardless of your past academic experience.
• You are willing to complete at least two years as a full time student at Harvey Mudd (this is a requirement).
• You are interested in joining a residential campus community. Living on campus is not required, but nearly all students live on campus all four years.
• You exhibit a genuine desire to take advantage of the Harvey Mudd and Claremont Colleges communities beyond the academic offerings.
