1 We can help you make the move. Office of Internal Transfer

2 Dear Students: Before I say anything about our office and what we can do for you, I want to first commend you on considering Mercyhurst Erie. Getting a bachelor s degree really is one of the smartest things you could ever do: It will let you earn more (studies show an average of $550,000 more over your lifetime!), advance faster and take advantage of many exciting career opportunities. There s no doubt that this is a big and maybe even intimidating move. I know you have credits to transfer, classes to schedule, expenses to figure out and so much more. But I also know that these details are infinitely easier to tackle when you work with the Office of Internal Transfer. You probably already know that we re here to help you sort out the academic logistics selecting classes and finding a good tutor should you need one. But did you also know that we act as trusted advisors and confidants before, during and after your decision to transfer to Mercyhurst Erie? I regularly listen to students at every stage of the transfer process, either giving them sound advice or connecting them with professionals who can provide additional support and encouragement. Here, our door is always open to you just read on to learn all the ways how. Again, congratulations on considering this next step. I sincerely hope you take it and that we can help you reach your goal. This brochure will give you an overview of all the things you need to know but definitely don t think twice about contacting our office if you have any questions! Best wishes, Shirley Williams, M.S. Office of Internal Transfer (814)

3 How We Help You You already know that an associate degree from Mercyhurst University opens up a world of career opportunities. But maybe you re thinking about continuing your education by pursuing one of the more than 50 bachelor s degrees offered at Mercyhurst Erie.

Once you meet these admission requirements, the Office of Internal Transfer is here to help you: Determine if an Internal Transfer is the best move for you. Facilitate campus tours. Submit your program change information. Transfer your credits. Coordinate a housing arrangement. Choose your classes. Take advantage of academic support services. Find work-study opportunities. Support you during the entire transfer process Putting Your Education Within Reach It s always our goal to make your education affordable by helping you put together a financial aid package that works.

Internal Transfer Scholarship for Adult Students These scholarships are based on the following G.P.A. ranges: $3, $3,000

5 In Their Words Here s what a few former students have to say about transferring to Mercyhurst Erie and how that decision continues to benefit them now! Carolyn Cartwright, Classes of 2008 and 2010 Mercyhurst North East: Associate degree in Liberal Arts Mercyhurst Erie: Bachelor s degree in Business Management Now: Human Resources Specialist at UPMC Hamot Transferring to Mercyhurst Erie was the best thing I could do to further my education. Mercyhurst North East gave me the skills I needed to succeed, and the transfer process was smooth and not complicated at all. Mercyhurst and the financial aid department handled just about everything for me. It was definitely the right choice and opened the door for me to get the job I have today.

6 In Their Words Bryheem Charity, Classes of 2009 and 2011 Mercyhurst North East: Associate degree in Criminal Justice Mercyhurst Erie: Bachelor s degree in Criminal Justice Now: Pursuing a Master of Science in Organizational Leadership at Mercyhurst Erie The Office of Internal Transfer made it easy to transition over to the Erie campus. They introduced me to everyone from counselors to vice presidents to other students who had transferred. Going to Mercyhurst North East and then Mercyhurst Erie got me thinking about the future; I saw a lot of adults coming back for their master s, so I decided to go for mine since I was already on track. You don t have to be extremely intelligent to go to college, but with hard work, commitment and sacrifice, you can achieve intelligent results.

7 In Their Words Dan Portenier, Classes of 2002, 2004 and 2010 Mercyhurst North East: Associate degree in Liberal Arts Mercyhurst Erie: Bachelor s degree in Communication and master s degree in Special Education Now: Behavior Specialist Consultant at Barber National Institute Transferring to Mercyhurst Erie to get my bachelor s and master s degrees was easy. They already knew me, so it was just a couple of extra steps. Everything I learned at both campuses and Mercyhurst s spiritual grounding prepared me for the work I do now.
