Transfer Students

It’s easy to jump into Taylor’s community as a transfer student.

Since our residence halls are not separated by years (no freshman dorm here!), you’ll find people right next door who are at a similar same place of life as you.

We want the process of transferring to Taylor to be as smooth as possible. It can be a fairly quick process as long as we get all your information in a timely manner. 

Financial Aid for Transfers

All transfer students are eligible for up to $18,000 in academic scholarships, renewable yearly with a 3.0 Taylor GPA. Various department scholarships and need-based financial aid are also available.

Phi Theta Kappa and American Honors scholars are eligible for a $3,000 per year scholarship.

*These award amounts are determined by your college GPA. Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative GPA at Taylor to retain the top 3 award amounts otherwise the scholarship drops to the $12,000 level.

This academic scholarship is awarded in lieu of other academic scholarships. Scholarship is renewable each year with a cumulative 3.0 Taylor GPA.

Scholarship amounts are for students entering during the 2025-26 academic year.

Transfer Credits

One of the biggest questions you may have is how will my credits transfer? Every transfer student is unique, and so are the classes you’ve taken. We’re happy to walk you through the process of evaluating your credits.

The best place to start is by contacting Jared Burgess with your questions. Once you email us your college transcript, we will forward it on to the Registrar for preliminary review.

• A maximum of 64 hours of credits may be transferred from an accredited two-year college.
  • You must complete 50 percent of the minimum degree hours at Taylor University.
  • Coursework must have a grade of C- or better to be accepted.
• In lieu of an official transcript, you can complete the Pre-Enrollment Transfer Evaluation Form and submit it directly to the Registrar for transfer credit evaluation.
