Transfer Students

NOTE: We are closed for new Transfer applications for the fall semester. If you are applying for the BSN nursing program and the RN requirement is fulfilled please call (717) 872-3371 for an application.

Students who have completed at least 12 transferable credits at another college or university are considered transfer students, for purposes of admission criteria.

Students who have achieved at least a 2.0 cumulative grade point average on a 4.0 scale at their previous colleges and universities will be admitted to the university if they have at least 12 transferable credits.

The following materials should be submitted:

• Completed application with application fee
• Official college transcripts of all previous institutions attended
• An official high school transcript sent directly from your guidance office to the Admissions office

Transfer Information Sessions

Transfer Information Sessions are held throughout the year. The transfer application process, credit evaluation process and general information regarding registration and advisement are covered. Individual appointments are limited. Seating is limited.

Please click here to go to our visit page and register online for the session that suits your schedule.

The Transfer Application and Admission Process

• Transfer student admission requires a minimum of 12 transferable credits with a 2.0 or higher GPA (3.0 for Elementary Education). A combined GPA is calculated for students who have earned credits at multiple institutions.
• Official transcripts must be sent directly from each institution where coursework was attempted.
• Students with fewer than 12 transferable credits earned at the time of application will be evaluated using a combination of the college and the high school records.
• Deposit serves as the key to the next steps in the admission process (invitation to new student orientation, assignment of an adviser, registration information, access to the web based registration and advisement systems, etc.). These steps occur automatically upon admission for part time students.
• See the curriculum sheets for the General Education program and all MU programs.

How do Credits get Transferred to Millersville?

• See the Course Equivalency Lists to compare MU courses with other colleges.
• Unofficial credit evaluations will be sent with the offer of admission. If MU does not offer an exact equivalent course, elective credits may be awarded. The evaluation becomes official and credits are entered into the MU academic record after a deposit has been received (no deposit required for part time students).
• Follow a liberal arts transfer curriculum at your current college to insure a maximum number of transfer credits.
• Most liberal arts courses in which a grade of C- or better is earned would be transferable if completed at a regionally accredited college.
• Courses not accepted include those remedial in nature, study skills courses, courses taken at institutions lacking regional accreditation, and those in which grades below C- were earned.
• Courses in which a grade of D was earned are transferable from Pennsylvania community colleges and institutions in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education only, provided the cumulative GPA is 2.0 or higher.

Transfer Students from Harrisburg Area Community College:

Students transferring from Harrisburg Area Community College are encouraged to refer to the advisement check sheets developed cooperatively between HACC and MU. Some transfer sessions are specifically designed for HACC students. Please register here to attend a session.

HACC / MU Dual Admission Program

The Dual Admission Program is designed for students who plan to complete an Associate Degree at HACC prior to enrolling at MU. It is primarily an advisement program that provides ongoing credit evaluations that allow students to see how HACC credits will fit towards the MU degree. The program is only for students who intend to complete an Associate Degree at HACC, prior to beginning at MU . It is recommended that you apply to the program prior to the completion of 45 college credits. Please see your HACC Counselor for an application and additional information. Students currently enrolled in the Dual Admission Program enter here for additional information.
