Transfer Requirements - Credit Guides

In order to be considered for admission, transfer students must:

1) Apply for admission
2) Submit official copies* of transcripts from all colleges and universities at which you have attempted credit. Students must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0** or higher to be considered for full admission to MBU.
3) Submit a letter of recommendation (part of the online application process)

* Official transcripts are defined as those submitted directly from one institution to another. These transcripts must arrive at MBU in a sealed envelope.
**Students who do not have a 2.0 or higher cumulative GPA may appeal to the Admissions Review Committee for probationary acceptance to MBU.
