How To Apply - Transfers
What if I have already applied to Eastern previously (ie. last year, last semester, etc)?
Priority Registration for Transfer Students
If you deposit by March 25th, you will have the opportunity to register early for classes before open registration begins for new students. Contact your counselor if you have any questions.
To be considered for admission, please submit the following
- Application for Admission and essays; print application
- $25.00 application fee
- Official high school transcript or official GED
- Applicant reference form completed by a teacher or school counselor. A letter of reference from a pastor is encouraged, but not required, in addition to the teacher/counselor reference.
- Official transcripts from all previous colleges attended.
- Transfer Evaluation Form (.pdf)
Upon receipt of these credentials, your application will be reviewed by the Admissions Committee, and you will be notified promptly of their decision. The committee may require additional information or an interview before reaching a decision.
Transfer Students Recommendations
Eastern University welcomes applications from students who have their Associate’s degree as well as from students who have earned college credits at another institution.
We recommend that you start the application process at least two months prior to the date of when you wish to transfer. Once Eastern receives all the information to complete your application, we will make a decision.
Listed below are the cumulative GPA's needed to be an academic scholar.
| Full-time transfer students with a cumulative GPA of 3.75 - 4.0 or a National Scholastic transfer | Accepted with $8,500 scholarship |
| Full-time transfer students with a cumulative GPA of 3.5 - 3.74 | Accepted with $7,500 scholarship |

If you are accepted, your application will go to the Registrar’s office for a credit evaluation. At this point, you will be notified by mail as to how many credits will transfer. The credit evaluation will outline which Eastern courses are equivalent to the courses you are transferring, and if your credits fulfill core, breadth, or major requirements.
