Transfer Student Resources

For our transfer students, we understand the most important question to answer is how your credits will transfer to Webster University. If you’ve passed a college level course, it will most likely count toward finishing your degree. Our admission counselors and academic advisors will work with you to determine how your previous courses can apply to your Webster degree and what classes you'll still need here at Webster to complete your program.

On this page you'll find links to our community college transfer guides, degree plans, and the transfer equivalency database. You'll also find information about our upcoming community college visits and transfer fairs so you know when we'll be on your campus.

Bachelor of Science in Psychology with Minors in Human Development and Child Advocacy from Athens State University

I really enjoy the quirky culture at Webster, and its ability to make students from all walks of life feel welcome and comfortable.

Transitioning from working with unhoused youth, I really wanted to continue my professional career working with young adults. I felt like higher education was a great way to support people with different levels of needs.

Your perceived shortcomings are not a reflection of you as a whole person. Enjoy the journey and trust the process. Those who wander are not always lost.

Transfer Credits Frequently Asked Questions

Webster always attempts to provide full transfer of successfully completed associate degrees from regionally accredited institutions. Webster will accept up to 90 hours from a community college if credits are taken prior to the date the degree was awarded.

If an associate degree is not completed, Webster will accept up to 64 hours from a community college or from other forms of lower-division credit.

All transfer credit is capped at 90 credit hours. Webster University's minimum residency requirement is the completion of 30 credit hours of the last 36 credit hours prior to graduation. Students transferring from a regionally accredited community college may be limited on the number of lower-division credits that can transfer, based on if an associate degree is earned and date the degree was earned. See above FAQ.

The University will accept up to 30 credit hours, regardless of degree earned, from an institution that is nationally accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. All credits will be converted to semester hours.

Students who have completed an Associate of Arts (AA) degree, Associate of Arts in Teaching (AAT) degree from Missouri community colleges, the Associate of Science (AS) from Illinois community colleges, the Missouri 42-hour block, or another verified general education program will have satisfied the general education section and global cornerstone seminar requirement of the Global Citizenship Program at Webster.

Students who have completed other associate degrees (including AAS, AS, ADN), a certificate, or not completing a degree/certificate prior to transfer will have their transfer coursework evaluated on a course-by-course basis for equivalency with Webster University's Global Citizenship Program requirements.

Students who have completed an Associate of Fine Arts (AFA) degree from a regionally accredited community college and pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts or Bachelor of Music degree at Webster will have satisfied the global cornerstone seminar and general education section of the Global Citizenship Program, as accommodated for the BFA or BM. Students with an AFA who choose to pursue a degree other than a BFA or BM at Webster will have coursework evaluated on a course-by-course basis for the GCP.

Transfer course equivalency requirements for the major are determined by the appropriate department. Transfer course equivalencies for the Global Citizenship Program follow established guidelines. See transfer guides or equivalency database for more specific information on course equivalencies.

Official evaluation of transfer credits is conducted by the Office of the Registrar following admission to the University and upon receipt of all official transcripts.

All transfer coursework must be college-level (100-level or above) with a passing grade. Pass/Fail courses will count for transfer credit if the student received a Pass. For repeated courses only the second grade will be counted. Incomplete grades are not accepted in transfer.

Courses completed with a grade of D have restrictions in transfer and generally are not applicable toward graduation requirements at Webster.

Duplicate coursework does not transfer.

Webster follows recommendations put forth by the American Council on Education (ACE) in awarding transfer credit for military training and in-service corporate training programs. Students must submit official JST, CCAF, and/or ACE transcripts for transfer credit to be considered.
