Iowa State University and your community college have teamed up to design the Admissions Partnership Program (APP) for transfer students just like you. It's easy. It's seamless. It's the next step. And best of all, it puts you on the path to a full range of exclusive Iowa State benefits including:

- Guaranteed admission to Iowa State provided requirements are met
- Personal academic advising and mentoring
- Degree planning to ensure timely graduation
- Free transcript exchange between your community college and Iowa State
- Real-time degree audit information, so you'll always know how your credits will transfer and how they apply to your chosen major
- Special early orientation invitation
- Option to lock-in bachelor's degree requirements with the same status as a student who enrolls as a first year student, direct from high school
- Guaranteed Iowa State housing at student rates
- Student discount prices for cultural and athletic events*
- Your own ISUCard and e-mail account
- Exclusive transfer newsletters with career planning tips and information about campus news and events

*These options require that you have an Iowa State University student identification card and that you pay an optional student activity fee of $113.75 per semester. Fees are subject to change. To take advantage of this option, you must first contact Tuition & Fee Assessment at 515 294-1889 or in 0460 Beardshear so that the activity fee is assessed. Once assessed, the payment can then be sent to the treasurer's office, 1220 Beardshear.
