Transfer Admission
Transfer Admission - An applicant seeking admission to Roberts Wesleyan College who has completed 12 or more credits at another post-secondary institution is considered a transfer student. To apply for admission, submit the Roberts Rapid Application or the Common Application and transcripts of college work completed or in progress. Official transcripts must be sent to the Office of Admissions from all previous post-secondary institutions attended. Students who have only completed college credit while in high school but are planning to enroll at Roberts will be evaluated through the freshman admissions process. All documents submitted become the property of Roberts Wesleyan College and cannot be forwarded to another institution.
The minimum transfer requirements for regular admission to Roberts are as follows:
- College Transcript: Cumulative GPA of 2.7 or higher out of 4.0 at the last college attended full-time
- Transfer students seeking admission into Roberts Nursing program must meet additional requirements as outlined in the following section.
Meeting minimum requirements does not guarantee admission into Roberts Wesleyan College. Additional materials may be requested including but not limited to an opportunity for additional testing and/or campus interview prior to an admission decision. Any student who has a felony record will be asked for further information.
Nursing Transfer Admission Requirements - applicants seeking admission into the Nursing program must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.00 in all their prerequisite science courses, Nursing courses, and in their overall cumulative GPA. In addition, applicants can not be, or have been, enrolled in a Nursing program at another college. Science prerequisites may not be taken more than twice to achieve a B grade, and will not count toward the nursing degree if more than 5 years old.
Transfer student admission to the nursing program is on a space-available basis.
Provisional Admission – If a student is admitted provisionally, the first semester of coursework will be limited to a maximum of 14 credit hours. The student will receive academic support from the Learning Center and if assigned one, guidance from an academic mentor. At the completion of the first semester, the Academic Guidance and Support Committee will determine if there is a need to continue provisional status. Provisional students are required to sign an Academic Promise committing to their own success by using the Learning Center and mentoring services. This Academic Promise must be signed and returned to finalize enrollment and receive financial aid.
