What do I like most about Webster?
Webster is a very unique university. As a global university with campuses around the
world, we offer many exciting and unique study abroad opportunities for our students
and encourage our students to take advantage of these life-changing experiences. But
in St. Louis, our campus is very small, personal, and inviting, so our students can
experience the scope and network of a large university while at the same time have
a college experience that is very personal and intimate.
What brought me to Webster?
My previous experiences of working in higher education were with 2 community colleges
in Missouri; I was looking for a position in the St. Louis area where I could put
my previous experiences and skill set to good use when I applied for the position
of Transfer & Articulation Coordinator at Webster. After serving in that role for
5 years, I transitioned to the role of Associate Director of Transfer Recruitment
and Community College Partnerships. I enjoy working with transfer students and know
that I can provide assistance and resources in helping students transfer to our wonderful
university, which will help prepare them for successful careers in their chosen fields.
My Advice to Transfer Students:
1. Start the process early!
2. Take advantage of the many resources and supports available to you in transferring:
transfer guides, transfer counselors at Webster, your advisor at your current school,
etc. We are all here to help you!
3. Finally, don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. Try new things, meet
new people, get involved in a student club or organization-- make the most of your
college experience

What do I like most about Webster?
Webster has such a unique atmosphere. It’s a small school, but the campus is spread
out so it doesn’t always feel so small. There are people from all walks of life, it’s
centered in wonderful Webster Groves, and provides students with ample opportunities
to explore everything that this city has to offer. The experience and campus is truly
unique. Webster is a student-first school and a student-first experience and that
is what higher education should be about.
What brought me to Webster?
Most of my background is in early childhood education. I held many different positions
in that field from being a preschool teacher, to being in administration. I have spent
time in all aspects of education-- everything from preschools to middle schools and
high schools, and whether it be in a teaching or administration aspect or through
an athletics program, the education field has always drawn me in. As a transfer student
myself, I became eager to be able to help students make a smooth transition from institution
to institution. I feel this is very important and Webster has granted me the opportunity
to be one of the people to help ease that transition for students.
My advice to transfer students:
It’s important to start your transfer process early, however, do not be in a rush
and make haste decisions. Make sure you ask questions and get all the information
that is needed to feel comfortable with you transition. Use your resources. Both resources
provided by Webster and outside resources can be helpful for finding needed information.
Once you have made the decision and you are at Webster, make sure to get involved
and be a proactive member of Webster’s culture. There is so much here and so many
memories to be made.

State; Master of Arts in Geography from The University of Missouri; Master of Science
in College Student Development from Kansas State University
What do I like most about Webster?
Webster is a small liberal Arts school, which helps to create a thoroughly student
centered focus. The human scale of Webster means that our faculty and staff will get
to know you as a student, what your goals are and how we can best guide you. This,
I feel, truly sets Webster University apart from any institution I have worked with.
What brought me to Webster?
I came to Webster specifically to work with transfer students. I was a community college
student who went through the transfer process to complete my bachelor’s degree. I
am a great believer in the value of starting your career in higher education at a
community college, and I am also a firm advocate for transfer students becoming involved
in the community of the four year institutions they transfer into. In addition to
offering a truly outstanding learning environment, Webster University provides a great
deal of support to our transfer students. These are all reasons I wanted to join the
Webster community.
My advice to transfer students:
Get involved. My experience as a transfer student helps me to appreciate the focus
on degree completion in an efficient timeline, however, I cannot stress highly enough
the value in taking advantage of the opportunities open to students at Webster. Your
time here will be the best opportunity to become involved in organizations, activities
and to see great performances and athletic events. Even if these are things that are
not on your radar during the transfer process, you may thank yourself for taking advantage
of them once you are here

Currently pursuing Master of Arts in Human Services from Webster University
What do I like most about Webster?
As a student, I appreciate the small class sizes that create and encourage the opportunity
to develop good rapport with professors. Webster has afforded me the opportunity to
get a quality education with professors who truly care about their students, and are
involved in their fields outside the classroom. I also like the variety of degree
programs that Webster offers; there truly is something for everyone!
Overall, I love the fact that we are a diverse campus that includes people from all
different backgrounds and cultures. The eclectic mix of the arts & sciences, business,
communications, and education, along with the multitude of student organizations,
offers a chance to attend events that are altogether fun, informative, and entertaining!
What brought me to Webster
By chance, in 2012 I was notified of an entry level position that was available in
the Office of Admissions. I applied and was hired, and spent 3½ years as an Admissions
Associate. I then transitioned into the role of a Representative/Transfer Counselor
in 2015.
My Advice to Transfer Students:
1. Start early – it’s never too early to start your transfer plans
2. Familiarize yourself with the programs we offer and our liberal credit transfer
policy
3. Get involved in student activities and clubs on campus
4. Never be afraid to ask questions – we are here to help you!

College Credit for What You Already Know
Many adult students have gained the equivalent of college-level learning through work, military or other non-academic experiences. Undergraduate students can have their learning evaluated for credit as part of their college degree program through prior learning assessment.
Webster provides options for Prior Learning Assessment (PLA), where students document learning achieved through nonacademic experiences, most often through a formal portfolio. More information is available in the PLA brochure and FAQs below, or you can inquire with your admissions counselor or academic advisor.
Webster University awards college credit for previous learning experiences that may fall outside of traditional transfer credit earned through another college or university.
The University follows recommendations put forward by the American Council on Education (ACE) for corporate and military training. We award college credit for passing test scores on various exams such as CLEP, DSST, Excelsior College Exams, Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and other designated 13th year international credentials.
The following general policies apply for credit earned through external credit by exam:
- A maximum of 32 credit hours will be awarded for first-year work earned through any combination of International Baccalaureate (IB), Advanced Placement (AP), Austrian Matura, French Baccalaureate, German Abitur, Netherlands VWO, Swiss Maturite, and other designated 13th year programs normally completed prior to enrollment at a University.
- A maximum of 64 credit hours will be awarded for standardized tests (CLEP, DSST, Excelsior College Exams, Global Assessment Certificate), as this credit is normally designated as lower division. Duplicate coursework is not permitted.
- Credit awarded through exams does not affect a student's GPA.
- Credit awarded through external exams does not count toward the University's residency requirement. Degree-seeking students at Webster should speak with their academic advisor to discuss how the credit may apply toward degree requirements
Below, we’ve gathered policies and/or equivalencies for common external exams or credentials:
