The education system in the United States is different than in my country. How can I tell if I am a freshman, transfer, or post baccalaureate student?
You are considered a freshman applicant if you have not attended a college or university after the completion of high school. You are considered a transfer applicant if you have attended another college or university and earned any number of credits. You are considered a post-baccalaureate applicant if you have attended another university or college and earned (or will earn) a U.S Bachelor’s degree or a degree that is equivalent to the U.S. Bachelor degree. Students need to submit official transcripts from their university or college that clearly shows the degree earned.
