Incoming students can transfer up to 70 hours of academic credit from another college or university into their degree program of choice. We will work with your existing credit hours to determine where your MBU education will begin. Our goal is to help your academic transition go smoothly so that you can be well on your way to shining on at MBU.
If you need assistance, contact Kate Camillo at kate.camillo@mobap.edu for assistance with campus tours, transcript evaluations, academic degree plans and financial aid. Transfer counselors can also help you put together a customized transfer plan.
