Transfer and Post Baccalaureate Students

Gonzaga welcomes the experience and diversity that you bring to the academic community. We'd like to make your transition as smooth as possible, so here's some helpful information up front.

You may transfer in a maximum of 64 semester (96 quarter) credits from community and junior colleges. While there is no limit on transfer credit from four-year colleges, you must complete 30 semester credits at Gonzaga (128 semester credits are needed for graduation). 

We recognize the Associate of Arts and the Associate of Science transfer degrees from Washington community colleges, North Idaho College and Marymount College. 

The application process is different for you than it is for first-time students. Our transfer specialists, Helen Nahoopii and Joan Sarles, are available to answer all of your questions. Please contact Helen at nahoopii@gonzaga.edu or (800) 986-9585, ext. 6579; and Joan at sarles@gonzaga.edu or (800) 986-9585, ext. 6571.

We've also created a Transfer Guide to help you with the logistics.
