Transfer Admissions

TransferRing to Post University


As an accredited institution, Post University will accept credits earned from another accredited institution of higher education providing the courses presented for the degree were successfully completed with a final grade of C or better.

If you are interested in transferring to Post University, you should do the following:

  1. Obtain an application for admission from the Office of Admission, then complete and return the application along with a $40 non-refundable application fee. You may also apply online by clicking here. If you submit an application online, the fee is waived.

  2. If you have earned less than 30 college credits, you are required to have an official high school transcript sent to the Post University Office of Admissions. We do not require your high school transcript if you have earned more than 30 college credits. Download the Transcript Request Form by clicking here.

  3. Arrange to have your official transcript sent to the Office of Admission from all colleges and universities previously attended, regardless of whether credit has been earned.

  4. A transfer applicant with less than 30 credits who has taken the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or American College Test (ACT), should arrange to have test scores sent to the Office of Admission. Applicants who have not previously taken the SAT or ACT are required to do so if they have completed fewer than 30 college credits.  Post University's school code for the SAT is 3698.  The code for the ACT is 0580.

  5. Schedule a personal interview with an admissions officer. A phone interview or a meeting with a University representative may be substituted when an on-campus visit isn't possible.

Please send your completed application and all other required materials to:

Once we receive your materials, Post University will prepare a transfer credit evaluation. A student may transfer up to 90 credits from accredited colleges or universities, no more than 75 of which may have been earned at a two-year college.

If a student already holds a degree from an accredited institution, Post University will accept the degree and will apply the transfer credits that fit the major the student has chosen. If a student wishes to challenge non-acceptance of older credits, he/she must file a written request with the Transfer Coordinator (Sandra Jordan, Associate Director of Admissions).

In all cases, Post University reserves the right to award or withhold credit.

If you have any questions regarding transferring credits, Post University's credit policy or the articulation agreements that Post University has with area community colleges, please contact the transfer admissions coordinator Sandra Jordan at 203.596.6172 or email sjordan@post.edu.

Admission Decision Policy


Post University subscribes to a rolling admissions policy. The Office of Admissions makes every effort to notify candidates of their admission decision approximately three weeks after receiving a completed application. In some cases, the Admissions Committee may defer making a final decision until it has received a report of the candidate's midterm grades or until a personal interview takes place. If you have not heard back from us within three weeks, feel free to contact the Admissions office to check the status of your application.
