COLUMBUS, Ohio, Aug. 8, 2024
/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- To ease the process for college students who
wish to transfer institutions, Capital
University has announced a Tuition Transfer Match program
for students enrolling this fall.
"At Capital, we want to prioritize the
needs of our transfer students and meet them where they are in
their lives by improving access to and affordability of a four-year
degree." — Capital University President
David L. Kaufman.
Capital will match net tuition costs for all currently enrolled
or accepted transfer students attending an Ohio private, non-profit college or
university. Students must be new to Capital
University, enroll full-time for the Fall 2024 semester, and
meet the admission criteria.
"The pathway to a four-year degree is no longer linear," said
Capital President David L. Kaufman.
"Students come with college credits earned while they were in high
school, while some may start college then need to leave and
re-enroll later in life, and others may have earned an associate's
degree then wish to transfer to a four-year institution."
Data from the National Clearinghouse Research Center shows more
than 1.2 million students transferred in fall 2023, up 5.3 percent
from the previous year.
"At Capital, we want to prioritize the needs of our transfer
students and meet them where they are in their lives by improving
access to and affordability of a four-year degree," Kaufman
said.
Capital's commitment to the Tuition Transfer Match program
continues a long history of aiding transfer students in earning
their bachelor's degree.
The university is a member of the Ohio Consortium for Transfer
Pathways to the Liberal Arts, a group of 25 two- and four-year
colleges working together to provide clear, consistent transfer
pathways for community college students transferring to Capital.
The university also offers ways for students to earn college credit
for knowledge gained outside traditional college classroom
settings, such as life experience and non-collegiate career
coursework that may translate into credit toward a four-year
bachelor's degree.
