I wish you luck. The State Dept. has it’s faults, but it’s better than most Government Agencies and you can have an entire career with them, see a lot of places and make some pretty good money in the process.

“Each year, the transfer admissions committee evaluates approximately 1600 transfer applications. Normally, a B average or higher at the applicant’s previous institution is recommended for consideration for admission. Transfer applicants should request that an official transcript from their current institution and any previously attended institution(s) be sent to Undergraduate Admissions. Applicants are required to submit 2 professor recommendations and a Dean’s report, which verifies whether the applicant is in good academic standing. A high school transcript is also required as are SAT and/or ACT scores. If, however, a transfer applicant has been out of high school for more than 5 years, the SAT/ACT requirement is waived. Transfer students are admitted only for the Fall semester. Those admitted for the fall, however, may begin with summer sessions.”
