At this point in your college career, you have a better understanding of what you are looking for – bring your gifts and talents to HU!
To submit a transfer application, you must have already completed 12 or more credit hours of college coursework at a regionally accredited university after graduating high school. Transfer students who have earned less than 12 transferable semester hours will be evaluated based on high school work in addition to college work completed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Huntington University accepts two types of transfer credits:
- Direct Equivalency: The course is equivalent to a specific course at HU and fulfills specific coursework requirements for admission and/or your plan of study
- Undistributed Credit: The course does not match a specific course for the degree of interest but will be brought in as a general credit that can be used to satisfy elective requirements in your program.
Contact your transfer admissions counselor to request an official transcript evaluation. The registrar's office will evaluate your transcript(s) to determine which of the classes you’ve taken can qualify for credit at HU and send the results via email. If the class was taught at a regionally accredited institution and you earned a C- or better, it is eligible for consideration. Please note:
- Some degree programs may have additional requirements.
- HU considers nationally accredited institutions on a case-by-case basis.
Our Transfer Academic Award maximum is $11,000 per year, but transfer students can be awarded according to our Freshman Academic Awards program if their high school transcript qualifies them. Transfer students who wish to be reviewed for a Freshman Academic Award must send an official high school transcript to Huntington University. HU will award transfer students the highest academic scholarship for which they qualify based upon transfer and high school GPA.
All full-time, single students must live on campus unless they are 22 years of age (prior to the first day of classes in the fall or spring), married, or living at home with their parents at the family’s primary residence, provided that residence is within 70 miles from campus. Students who are 24 years of age or older will not be permitted to live on campus, although exceptions may be made for international students.

Transfer Student Process
I am excited to work with you through the process of becoming part of our Forester Family. Having previous experience in recruiting and admissions during my undergraduate, I am excited to return and continue building strong relationships with students. An important scripture in and out of the workplace is, Philippians 2:3, “Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.”
Whether you are an incoming freshman or transfer student, I am here for you!
