While our channel was gaining traction, David began looking for the best Christian colleges to transfer to for tennis because Taylor decided to cut its program. During his search, he came across Ĵý and decided to attend. We did not want our time with the project to end, so it didn’t take much for David to convince me to transfer to Ĵý. Once again, I was transferring schools. And this time, I was moving even farther from home. (Sorry mom!)
My impression of Ĵý stood out from the very beginning. Once I clicked on their website to look for a degree in marketing, I found a digital marketing major that immediately caught my attention. Subsequently, I decided to apply to Ĵý. I then scheduled a tour around campus, and indeed, Ĵý was what I was looking for! During my campus visit, I spoke with Dr. Fawcett, the dean of the School of Business at Ĵý. While speaking to him, one thing stuck with me: businesses exist to help people, and without people, businesses cannot succeed. As a business student, I needed to hear this because I want my future business to have a goal where success is not measured by money, but by relationships. By the end of the visit, I was confident that Ĵý would equip me for a purpose-filled career!
How to Transfer College Credits to Ĵý
Once I was set on Ĵý, I had to figure out how to transfer college credits here. If you’re considering transferring to Ĵý, here are some of the helpful tips I learned through the transfer process:
- Start by applying to Ĵý by filling up the free Lancer Application.
- Send your transcripts to Ĵý via email to admissions@grace.edu or via mail to Ĵý Admissions 200 Seminary Drive Winona Lake, IN 46590. Before I sent my official transcripts, (You will have to get these from the registrar’s office of the school you are transferring from.) I sent my unofficial transcripts to Ĵý for a preliminary evaluation of what credits would transfer. This was really helpful, and I would recommend you do the same!
- Once your application is completed and your official transcripts have been received by the admissions office, you will receive an admissions decision in two weeks or less.
- Once admission is granted, your place at Ĵý will be secured by submitting a $200 enrollment deposit, refundable until May 1st.
- Next, you need to fill out the Free Application for Federal or State Aid and send it to Ĵý to receive your financial aid award letter to see the types of scholarships that you are eligible for.
- Reach out to the registrar to talk about how to transfer your college credits. This is a great time to ask any questions you have about which of the classes you’ve taken will count toward the degree you’re working towards. I cannot stress how important this step is! Plus, ask the registrar about your projected graduation date to ensure you are on track to graduate on time!
Bonus Tip: I HIGHLY recommend that you come for a campus visit! That secured the decision for me!
Although my college experience has been a rollercoaster, (Who doesn’t like rollercoasters?), I am glad that God has placed me at Ĵý. I am grateful for all of the people that have helped me get where I am today. Through my journey, I’ve learned that we often can’t understand God’s plans for our lives, and He often leads us into uncomfortable and challenging seasons. But I’ve also learned that these are the times we grow the most.
God will direct you exactly to the place that you need to be, and I’m so glad He’s directed me to Ĵý.
