Incentives and money saving benefits
We accept up to 75 credits for students transferring from both 2-year and 4-year colleges.
Roger Williams University guarantees admission to students transferring in with an associate’s degree from any accredited college with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.4. All associate degree credits will be awarded RWU credit and students will enroll with junior status*. Specialized advising is offered to transfer students.
*This admission guarantee is subject to RWU receiving a Transfer College Report from the transferring institution indicating that applicant is in good standing. Some majors require prerequisites and other required courses. Please refer to the course catalog.
You can get an estimate of which courses will transfer using the Transferology platform. Keep in mind that this is meant to provide a general view of what classes would transfer but to work with the Office of Admission for an official transcript review.
Students transferring with an associate degree are guaranteed to receive at least $20,000 in scholarships (scale is based on GPA). Students who an AA will not need to take Writing 200.
Phi Theta Kappa members will automatically receive an extra $1,000 scholarship per year on top of our generous merit-based awards and scholarships.
