Internal Transfer for Fashion Design and Product Innovation

Current students interested in transferring into the Fashion Design and Product Innovation major should follow these steps:

1. Speak with an advisor in the Fashion and Apparel Studies Department. Email fashion-studies@udel.edu to set up an appointment.
2. Complete FASH122. Students must earn a grade of C- or higher to be considered for transfer.
3. Maintain a GPA of 2.0 or above.
4. After completion of FASH122 (offered in both spring and fall semesters) and all grades for the semester have posted, submit a change of major webform through UDSIS.

Important information to note:

• It i​s critical that you work closely with your faculty advisor and regularly monitor your academic progress by reviewing your audit in UDSIS. This will insure proper progress toward​ graduation.
  

• Many courses in the Fashion Design and Product Innovation major are sequential and must be taken one before another. In other words, it is not possible to take sequential classes at the same time. For example, 122, 221, 314, 324, and 484 must all be ta​ken in sequence and in separate semesters.

• ​Additional pre-requisites are listed in the catalog. Be sure to keep in touch with the best advice by attending ​advisement meetings and working with your advisor in the planning of your schedule.

• ​Careful planning and meeting all pre-requisites in a timely way is critical. Some students may need to stay an ​additional semester to meet all requirements if courses are not taken at the correct time in their program.

• ​As an internal transfer student, you may not be able to complete the program in a total of four years. Some transfer students who enter the program after the sophomore year may need to stay beyond four years. Again, careful planning with your advisor is critical.​
