Transfer Admissions

Applicants intending to transfer to Our Lady of Holy Cross College from regionally accredited colleges and universities must be considered in good standing at the last school attended. Regardless of date courses were taken, credit may be transferred to OLHCC only for courses in which a minimum grade of “C” was earned, and which will apply directly to a program of study at Our Lady of Holy Cross College, unless otherwise informed.  Official evaluation of transfer course work will be performed only upon the student’s first registration at OLHCC.

Transfer students with less than 12 credit hours of completed college level credit will be considered first time freshmen. Applicants in this category must refer to the policy for Freshman Admission.

Requirements

  • Completion of 12 or more transferable college level credit hours; and
  • A grade point average of 2.0 or higher from the previous institution. 

If a student has not taken English and/or mathematics, with a grade of “C” or better at the previous institution, a placement test will be required prior to registration.

Conditional Admission

Completion of 12 or more transferable college level credit hours; and Who have attained a grade point average of 1.75-1.99 from the previous institution.

The students will be allowed to take courses according to their individual abilities and needs as specified by the College; this may include a lesser course load, approval for online course registration, and required advising sessions, among other requirements.

Suspensions at another college or university will be honored at Our Lady of Holy Cross College for the length of the suspension. Students on academic suspension may be admitted to the College only as non-degree seeking student. Under no circumstances will course work completed in a non-degree seeking status be applied to any degree or certification program at Our Lady of Holy Cross College.  Note: Students must officially change their academic status at the Registrar's office from non-matriculating to undergraduate after the suspension period is over.
