Requirements

A student transferring from an accredited institution must present an official copy of his/her transcript from each college-level institution attended. A high school transcript and standardized test results (ACT or SAT) are required if the applicant has fewer than 24 semester hours of transferable credit. The transfer applicants must be in good standing with the institution or eligible to return to it. Students must submit a resume or statement of activities to account for extended periods of non-enrollment

 

Transfer GPA Calculation

 Transfer admissions applications are subject to a GPA recalculation. Xavier University does not include the developmental course(s) in the recalculated GPA. Also, both the original and repeated grades of a failed course will be included in the GPA recalculation. 

The University grants transfer credits only for courses in which the student has received a grade of "C" (2.00/4.00) or better and which are comparable to Xavier courses. Ordinarily, the grades of transfer courses are not computed in the Xavier GPA. Not more than one-half of the credits required for the degree may be transferred from a community and/or junior college.
