GP21 Transfer Policy

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.

Drury welcomes transfer students and recognizes the need for students to assimilate their prior college experience into Global Perspectives 21 (GP21), our integrated, sequential general education curriculum. 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 exposure to global studies while also allowing the students to progress toward graduation within a reasonable time frame.
