Transfer Partnerships

Transfer to Sam from a Partner Institution - Become a Bearkat

Why Transfer to ¸£Àû¼§?

Reverse Transfer of Credit

Credit hours earned at ¸£Àû¼§ transfer back to the partner institution, so students who complete the requirements for an associate’s degree after leaving a partner institution, and before completing a bachelor's degree at ¸£Àû¼§, will earn the associate’s degree from the partner institution.

Scholarship Opportunities

Eligibility to apply for the Bearkat Transfer Scholarship

Academic Advising

Access to one-on-one academic advising at ¸£Àû¼§

Academic Support Services

Access to Evolve, an ¸£Àû¼§ student support program tailored to transfer student needs, as well as the Academic Success Center, Career Success Center, and other areas dedicated to student success

  • A student ID, computer/internet account, access to computer labs, and access to libraries at the partner institution and ¸£Àû¼§.
  • Student access to sporting events at ¸£Àû¼§.
  • Three unofficial transcripts at no cost.
  • Free electronic transcripts from ¸£Àû¼§ to the partner institution upon student request.

Honors Transfer Student Benefits

When admitted to ¸£Àû¼§, Honors students from partner institutions will receive:
