| Who is considered a returning student?
Applicants who have attended Rockhurst University previously.
Will Rockhurst accept my college credits?
Generally, coursework transferred from regionally accredited colleges
or universities may be used to satisfy Rockhurst degree requirements.
The following types of credit will not be accepted:
Courses completed at the lowest passing grade
at another institution; for example, a grade
of "D"
- Practicum
- Cooperative education
- Field experience
- Internship
- Quality points earned at
another school
Rockhurst will accept up to 64 credit hours
from two-year junior or community colleges
or up to 90 credit hours from four-year colleges
or universities. Meet with an admission counselor
to discuss specific courses.
Does Rockhurst need my high school
transcript or ACT scores again?
No. Rockhurst keeps these documents in students' files even after they
leave school.
When is the deadline for undergraduate
admission applications?
Rockhurst University operates on a rolling admission basis, reviewing
applications as they are submitted. However, priority is given to applications
received by Dec. 1 for the following fall's freshman class. Transfer
students may apply any time throughout the year. However, in order to
take advantage of all financial aid opportunities, it is preferable to
apply by April 1.
When is the deadline to submit financial
aid applications?
You should begin applying for financial aid as soon as you have submitted
an application for admission. Keep in mind that you won't be awarded
financial aid until you are accepted to the university. Your chance of
receiving a more comprehensive financial aid package increases the earlier
you submit a financial aid application.
Applicants should submit financial applications
by Feb. 15 for priority consideration for federal
and university funds.
What majors and minors are offered?
Rockhurst offers more than 50 undergraduate fields
of study.
