How does Westminster College in Salt Lake City handle transfer students?

I'm considering transferring to Westminster College in Salt Lake City and I'm curious about how the transfer process works there. Does anyone have insights on how transfer-friendly they are and what kind of support they provide? Thanks!

Westminster College in Salt Lake City has a detailed transfer admission process and from what I've seen, they are quite friendly towards transfer students. They have a separate admissions team just for transfer students, meaning that the staff dedicated to helping you navigate your transfer process understand the unique needs and circumstances of transfer students.

The school accepts transfer credits from regionally accredited colleges and universities. Regarding credit transfer, the college has a policy of accepting credits from courses where you've earned a grade of 'C-' or better. However, some programs might have higher grade requirements for certain courses. Plus, they generally can't accept credits from developmental or remedial courses. The total number of credits that you can transfer is up to 64 credits from two-year colleges and up to 88 credits from a four-year institution.

Also, they encourage transfer students to use their Transfer Equivalency Tool on their website which allows you to see how your credits may transfer over to Westminster.

In terms of support, they offer a transfer orientation to get to know the campus, resources, and policies. They also have academic advisers who can guide you through your transition and throughout your degree program. Moreover, they offer merit-based transfer scholarships to eligible students.

As always, you should contact the admissions office at Westminster to clarify any specifics about your situation and to make sure that all your transfer credits will be accepted. At the end of the day, they can provide the most accurate and tailored information.
