Undergraduate Transfer
If you are interested in taking classes through our traditional daytime program and have previously registered at another regionally accredited college or university as a matriculated student, regardless of credit earned, you should apply to Jacksonville University as a transfer student. Applicants are evaluated on a rolling admission basis.
How to Apply
- Apply online at www.ju.edu/apply.
- Request official transcripts from each college or university you have attended. If you have fewer than 24 transferrable semester hours, the Office of Admissions will also require an official copy of your high school transcript or GED test scores.
- Request official SAT and/or ACT scores if you would like them to be considered for an admission decision. JU is a test optional school.
- Complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
- Be sure to include JU’s school code (001495).
- This form needs to be updated every year.
- If you plan to major in one of our Fine Arts programs, you will be required to audition or submit a portfolio for admission consideration.
Transfer of Credits
Notes:
- All nursing applicants must meet the 2.5 GPA nursing admission requirement to qualify for the Articulation Agreement, or may be eligible after their 2.5 GPA admission academic conditions are met, to qualify for the Articulation Agreement.
- If any of the courses under the Articulation Agreement are failed while completing at JU, the Articulation Agreement will not apply and the student must satisfy all of the JU Core Curriculum requirements.
- If any of the above criteria is not met in the Associate degree, the Articulation Agreement will not apply and the student must satisfy all of the JU Core Curriculum requirements.
- Concealment of previous course work completed at a college or university, whether intentional or not, is cause for cancellation of admission and registration.
- When an undergraduate student submits official transcripts, has been admitted, and paid the $400 tuition deposit, the credits are evaluated for transferability to Jacksonville University. If admission applicants have a question concerning transfer credit, they should contact the Admission Office at (904) 256-7000.
- Limited or provisional credit also may be accepted from specialized or special purpose institutions, including the United States Armed Services, provided the work is applicable to JU undergraduate degree programs and is recommended in appropriate publications of the American Council on Education. For further information, see Credit for Military Service below in this section.
