Welcome Connect4Success Students
Now that you are getting ready to graduate with your AA, there is no need to reapply or pay another application fee. Just follow these steps to officially transfer to FIU.
1. Speak with a Bridge Advisor
Before you do anything, meet with a Bridge Advisor to get support as you take the final steps in your transition. Only your Bridge Advisor can confirm you’ve met your requirements and are ready to transition.
2. Update Your Application
When you have earned 30 credits, log into your MyFIU student account to reactivate your FIU application. Here's how to do it:
- Log into MyFIU. See Access MyFIU for help.
- If you cannot retrieve your password, call FIU IT Customer Support at 305-348-2284.
- On the dashboard, click the Admissions tile.
- Click on "Connect4Success Application" on the left navigation bar.
- Follow the form prompt to update all required fields and submit.
3. Submit Your Transcripts
Send an official transcript from the state college you are currently attending. It’s OK if you’re still taking classes, we will request that you send a final transcript after you graduate with your AA degree. Follow steps to Submit Transcripts.
4. Attend "Transition to FIU" Workshop
