Transfer Students
Thinking about transferring to St. Norbert College but not sure where to start? Here are some of the basics, but if you have questions please call our Office of Admission and our transfer coordinator would be happy to meet with you or talk over the phone about your situation.

St. Norbert College has a number of Transfer Credit Policies. St. Norbert College welcomes applications from students attending 2-year or 4-year accredited schools. Credit for college-level work is granted in all areas that correspond to courses offered at St. Norbert College as long as the student has earned at least a "C" for the course. Transfer students will be considered for admission as long as they have a cumulative grade average of at least "C+" (2.5/4.0), are free to return to their previous college or university, and are considered to be in good academic standing both at their previous school and at St. Norbert College.

We recommend that students planning to transfer to St. Norbert from a junior college pursue a program of study including a full year of math and/or science. We also suggest coursework in areas such as literature, economics, sociology, political science, history, psychology, speech and business. Each full course at St. Norbert is equivalent to courses worth four semester hours or six quarter hours of credit at other institutions.

St. Norbert College maintains transfer credit guides and articulations for colleges of what has been transferred in the past. View the list by state. The maximum amount of credit transferred from a two-year college is 72 semester credits or the equivalent of 18 courses. The student would have to pass at least 14 courses (56 semester credits) at St. Norbert and fulfill all lower and upper biennium requirements and successfully complete the requirements of a major. A minor would not be required unless the major program involves teacher certification. When a student transfers credit to St. Norbert College, the SNC course equivalency, previous school, and dates of attendance appear on the St. Norbert transcript. The credit transfers, but the grade does not transfer nor does it appear on the St. Norbert record. Credit will only be granted in courses with grades of "C" or better. The individual departments at St. Norbert College determine whether a transferred course may be substituted for a major requirement.

We require the following documents to complete the transfer admission process:

• Part I of the application form including a personal statement
• A $25 application fee payable to St. Norbert College ($10 if you apply online)
• Official high school transcripts of all completed course work, including rank-in-class (if available) and ACT/SAT results
• Official college transcripts from each college or university you've attended
• One letter of recommendation
