Transferring to UEL

If you are already attending university in your country and thinking about transferring, you may be able to transition smoothly into the next level at UEL. The process is simple and very similar to that of someone who has never attended university, with just a few extra steps.

You must have a minimum CGPA of 2.0 (out of 4) and be able to submit your community college or university transcripts, to determine what level of our degree programmes you will be able to transfer into.

What our students say

College can be a big investment, but it shouldn't break the bank. I wanted to get a degree that would give me more value and coming to East London did exactly that. Not only am I graduating with far less student debt than if I had stayed in California, but I can also afford to travel all over Europe on the cheap. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and I'm so glad I didn't let it pass me by!"
