Transfer Student Admission Requirements

To be considered for admission, transfer applicants with 30 or more college credits must present a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0 on a 4.0 scale from previous postsecondary institutions. Transfer applicants with fewer than 30 credits must present a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0 on a 4.0 scale from previous postsecondary institutions and a high school cumulative grade point average of at least 2.6 on a 4.0 scale. Please refer to individual school sections for additional requirements for specific programs. All applicants to the traditional B.S.N. program should note additional requirements; applicants to the accelerated second-degree nursing program should review additional requirements.

Applicants who have been enrolled in a college or university prior to applying to Marymount must submit the following:

• a completed application form with the nonrefundable application fee of $40
• a completed school official form from the last college attended or a recommendation from the dean of students at the last college attended
• official transcripts from all postsecondary institutions (delivered in a sealed envelope that bears the registrar’s signature and/or seal or via an authorized online delivery system)

Students who have been admitted for transfer to Marymount University will receive a formal transfer credit evaluation by the university registrar. It is the responsibility of the student applicant to provide the transcripts necessary for this evaluation. Marymount only accepts coursework for transfer credit from an institution accredited as degree-granting by a regional accrediting body for higher education at the time the coursework was completed. See transfer policies for more information. Transfer students may also receive credit for Advanced Placement coursework or similar programs, as well as for work experience. See Other Credit-Acquisition Opportunities for further information.
