Why Transfer to JWU Online?
Maximize Your Credits
“How many of my credits will transfer and apply to my degree?” This is one of the most frequent questions we hear. Our team works to ensure we accept the maximum amount of credits earned from previous institutions, with no limit on when credits expire.
“One of the best parts about transferring to JWU is our generous and thorough transfer credit policy,” states Deidre Tucci, Operations Manager. “We work diligently to award the maximum number of credits possible toward a student’s major, helping them save both time and money while moving closer to graduation.”

We also offer credit for life experiences, military service and prior learning assessments (including CLEP exams and portfolio evaluations), allowing you to earn credits for the knowledge or skills you’ve mastered.

Fast and Personalized Credit Evaluation
Wondering how your credits will transfer? Explore these two options today:
- Easy-to-use Transfer Evaluation System (TES): The TES System allows you to quickly see what credits may transfer to your degree. To get started with the TES System, including detailed instructions, visit our transfer page.
- Express Transfer Evaluation: JWU offers an Express Transfer Credit Evaluation, for students who want a quick evaluation. “Prospective students who choose this option can expect to receive a preliminary transfer evaluation within 48 business hours of submitting their request, giving them a quick and clear picture of how their credits may apply toward their degree at JWU,” Tucci states. “Students submitting transcripts from international universities should expect their preliminary evaluations to take longer, as we may need additional documentation beyond transcripts.”
“After submitting the online interest form, I was contacted right away by the admissions staff. The transfer team evaluated my college transcripts. A lot of my prerequisites were fulfilled by the courses I was able to transfer in.” – Jeffrey Adams, ‘24 B.S.– Business Studies

From the moment you apply, you’ll work with a dedicated admissions associate and a personal financial planner who understands the questions and the process unique to transferring.
