Roosevelt University provides an education you can afford.

Tuition is among the lowest of all Chicagoland’s private institutions, and more than 75 percent of Roosevelt students receive some form of financial assistance.

Roosevelt’s financial aid packages are among the most generous.

Typically, packages include a combination of scholarships, grants and loans from many sources. Merit scholarships that recognize academic achievement are especially generous at Roosevelt. Financial aid counselors at both campuses will help you find the most aid possible. You will be surprised how affordable an excellent private education can be.

Get started today.

Roosevelt University makes transferring as painless as possible. If you have taken more than 15 semester hours, then submit official transcripts from each institution at which you’ve taken courses. If you are transferring with less than 15 semester hours of college credit, then also submit an official high school transcript, or an official GED score. It’s that simple. Our professional admission counselors will guide you through the process.

Moving Forward

So, you’re ready to transfer, but you don’t know what to do next. Set up an appointment. Admission counselors will provide you with guidance on the transfer credit that may be applied toward a degree program. A transfer applicant’s cumulative grade point average (GPA) should be at least 2.0 on a 4.0 scale.
