Global Perspectives 21 (GP21) is an integrated, sequential general education curriculum for the Bachelor or Arts degree. Students benefit most from entering the GP21 sequence as freshmen and following the entire sequence through degree completion. Drury welcomes transfer students and recognizes the need for students to assimilate their prior college experience into GP21. The unique qualities of GP21 will have merit for students at all levels of entry, but it is not possible to provide the transfer student who will spend less than 8 - 10 semesters on campus with the same experience as the native student. An incremental transfer policy is offered to accommodate transfer students at all levels, providing the maximum possible influence from the curriculum while also allowing the students to progress toward graduation within a reasonable time frame. A transfer student is defined as a student who has matriculated as a degree-seeking student at another college and spent at least a semester enrolled as a college freshman. Students who complete college credits on a dual credit basis or who earn hours through Advanced Placement or other testing are not transfer students.

* A transfer student will be granted a degree when requirements are met as stated above. Students who complete the transfere curriculum will not be granted the Global Studies minor unless they elect to complete at least one semester of Transfer Seminar and all other requirements of GP21. The transfee seminar is entitled "Studies in American Life."
