Interested in seeing how your credits will transfer to JSU?
JSU offers merit-based scholarships for transferring students based on transfer GPA, transferrable hours, and PTK membership.
Students are encouraged to apply for competitive scholarships each academic year by Feb. 1st. Most scholarships are based on the applicant’s academic or extracurricular record, while some are based on demonstrated financial need.
View available scholarships and begin applying through your MyJaxState account, under View/Apply for Scholarships.
Your nine-digit JSU Identification (ID) Number is located at the top of your acceptance letter. You will use this number to reference your personal student information when contacting offices on campus.
Your username and initial password are located at the bottom of your acceptance email. You will use this username and initial password to access your MyJaxState account to view personal student information, view your financial aid information, and access many other options.
Each student is assigned a JSU E-mail account upon admission. The E-mail address is located at the bottom of your acceptance letter. Visit Office 365 to log in. Please start checking your JSU E-mail account frequently as important information is communicated via this account.
JSU hosts both transfer-specific events as well as daily campus tours so you can be prepared for a smooth transition to the Friendliest Campus in the South.
First-Time Transfer students have the option to live on campus and can apply for one of our upperclassmen housing options.
We offer orientation sessions specially designed to help transfer students get officially introduced to JSU and meet faculty, staff, and other transfer students. Students will end the day by registering for classes. While Transfer Orientation is not required, it is strongly recommended.
If you're not planning to attend Transfer Orientation, you will need to set up an appointment with an Academic Advisor before being cleared to register for classes. You can find information for your Academic Advisor in your acceptance email.
