Transfer process
Transferring into SIS can occur from within the University of Pittsburgh as an internal transfer, from any school in the country as an external transfer, or as an international student transfer. Review the Unversity's transfer guidelines for more detailed information.
Internal
Students already enrolled at Pitt may apply to the information science program simply by meeting with your current advisor and completing the:
- Undergraduate academic program change form from the School/College at which you are currently enrolled.
- SIS transfer application from your current advisor's office.
Your advisor will submit the forms to the School of Information Sciences, and they will be reviewed by the admissions committee. Decisions usually are made within two weeks.
External
Students who are transferring from other institutions should visit the University of Pittsburgh's transfer site.
International
International students should visit the University's Office of Admissions and Financial Aid to learn how to complete an application.
