Apply - Undergraduate, Transfer

You should use this application process if you:

• completed at least 12 transferable credits at another college or university

Transfer student admission requires:

• 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.

The materials required for admission as a transfer student are listed below:

1. Complete an application with an application fee (apply online).
2. Official transcripts must be sent directly from each institution where coursework was attempted.
   
   Address:
   Office of Admissions, Lyle Hall,
   P.O. Box 1002
   Millersville, PA 17551-0302
3. An official high school transcript sent directly from your guidance office to the Admissions Office.
4. 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.
5. A 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 Course Equivalency Lists on the Millersville Registrar's website 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 is 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.

Students transferring from Harrisburg Area Community College are encouraged to refer to HACCs advisement check sheets developed cooperatively between HACC and Millersville. Some Dual Admission Program is designed for students who plan to complete an Associate Degree at HACC prior to enrolling at Millersville. It is primarily an advisement program that provides ongoing credit evaluations that allow students to see how HACC credits will fit towards a Millersville degree. The program is only for students who intend to complete an Associate Degree at HACC, prior to beginning at Millersville. 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.
