Transferring Credits

As part of your application process, you are required to submit official transcripts from all higher education schools that you have attended. Transcripts are only considered official when they are sealed and sent directly to North Park University from another school. Copies and faxes are not considered official transcripts, but they can be a helpful reference for unofficial course planning.

Students may transfer in college credits from accredited schools for North Park University credit. The first 60 credit hours transferred in may be from either a community college or a 4-year accredited university. The last 30 credit hours transferred, for a total of 90 credits hours, must be from a 4-year accredited university.

A minimum of 120 semester hours are needed to complete a Bachelors of Science with a Major in Nursing. This includes prerequisite courses, general education courses and nursing courses. Of these 120 semester hours, your last 30 must be taken at North Park University.
