Students are considered a transfer student if they have attended another university and are accepted by BYU as a transfer student or if a student is currently in another art or design major and hope to change to another art or design major.

Transfer students applying for admittance to the Department of Design are asked to submit an application and a portfolio through the Slideroom portal. These applications are reviewed year round by program areas.

Upon acceptance into the department and at the discretion of the area faculty, students are placed at the appropriate level of study. Transfer applications are contingent upon acceptance into BYU, which is a separate application process. Admission to the department does not guarantee admission to Brigham Young University.
