We make it easy to pick up where you left off or start on a whole new journey. Let us show you how you can get the most out of your earned credits or gain credit for your professional experience.
If you received a high school diploma or high school equivalency certificate and have attempted or completed coursework during a regular session at another college, no matter how many credits you will be transferring to UMKC, you are considered a transfer student.
The number of credits you transfer determines which transcripts you submit with your application and if you can be considered for automatic scholarships.
If you are transferring fewer than 24 college credits, you must submit both your high school and college transcripts. With fewer than 24 college credits, you are not eligible for automatic scholarships.
If you are transferring 24 or more college credits, you do not need to submit your high school transcripts. Transfer students with a minimum 2.25 GPA who apply by the priority deadline will be considered for our automatic scholarships for transfer students.
