Transfer Easily
Wondering how you’ll finish your degree now? With Liberty, you can transfer in up to 75% of your degree — which equals up to 90 credits for our undergraduate programs!
Go Further for Less
We offer one of the lowest tuition rates in the country and haven’t increased it for 9 years and counting, so you can get the education you need to make the difference you want.
Our Goal for Transfer Students
Our goal is to make the transfer process to Liberty University and a new degree program as smooth as possible. Our Office of Transfer Evaluations works hard to utilize your previous coursework, training, and experience to give you the fastest, least expensive path to your educational goals. The office also works to ensure that you do not have to repeat an equivalent course that you have previously taken through a regionally accredited college or university.
Experience-Based College Credit
Any eligible credit based on military or career experience can also be reviewed. For more information, please visit the Earn More Credit Through Prior Learning and Experience page.
