Transfer Student Admissions and Scholarships

You can transfer in the spring or fall semester. Interested in a GMercyU Nursing program? We offer three options, including a Junior Year Fast-Track program that begins in the summer.

GMercyU’s rolling admissions means you can apply at any time! For most programs, you’ll receive an admissions decision in as few as two weeks.

In addition to merit scholarships, you may qualify for need-based aid. Complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) with GMercyU’s school code (003270) to find out. 

Submit a free GMercyU online application (or apply via the Common app) and your official transcripts from all colleges attended. If you have less than 24 college credits, please also submit your final, official high school transcript.

Yes! You can transfer up to 75 qualifying credits toward a bachelor’s degree. Our goal is to make sure you get all the credit you deserve. During your free transfer evaluation, a specially trained admissions counselor will review with you the work you’ve completed at other colleges and universities to see which courses transfer into your program of choice.

To streamline the process, we hold transfer agreements with many area schools.  

Articulation Agreements are partnerships with other schools designed to make the transfer process as easy as possible. Once you apply, we will complete a course evaluation to see which of your credits at that school are transferable.

Core-to-Core Agreements mean we will accept the general education credits completed for specific degrees from a community college.

Dual Admissions Agreements mean you’re guaranteed admission to GMercyU when transferring into a designated major of choice as long as you meet the eligibility requirements that are clearly spelled out in the agreement. Students transferring under the Dual Admission program are also guaranteed scholarships! To participate, students need to complete a letter of intent.

Program-to-Program Agreements are pathways, maps, or guides that indicate how the courses of an associate degree transfer to GMercyU’s major curriculum. These agreements provide guidance for the elective courses that students should complete in order to transfer in with junior-year status.

Signature Seminars are unique to GMercyU and every undergraduate student must take two of them (6 credits total). The Seminars range from a variety of topics and are taught by professors in multiple disciplines. GMercyU's core values of integrity, respect, service, and social justice are interwoven throughout each course. These inspiring, engaging courses underscore our University’s mission and commitment to making a difference and as such, seminars from other institutions are not transferable to satisfy a GMercyU Signature Seminar.
