UE Honored for Outstanding Transfer Support by Phi Theta Kappa
Evansville, Ind. (06/24/2024) — For the third year in a row, the University of Evansville (UE) was named to the 2024 Transfer Honor Roll by Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society (PTK) for its support of transfer students as they enroll and work to complete their education. Of the nearly 900 colleges and universities across the nation that were considered, UE was one of just 228 that made the list.
The Transfer Honor Roll is established through the evaluation of 40 key indicators that measure a university's commitment to transfer students as they transition to and succeed at their institutions. These metrics encompass factors such as college expenses, financial aid availability, transfer-friendly campus environment, admission procedures, and successful attainment of bachelor's degrees.
"At UE, we are committed to ensuring a seamless transition for transfer students," said Cherie Leonhardt, Manager of Transfer Admission. "Recognizing the unique needs of transfer students, we are dedicated to providing the support and resources essential for their academic success. This acknowledgment further highlights our commitment."
Transfers are a growing population of students at the University of Evansville. Their academic talents and abilities are recognized by robust scholarships and financial aid, including a scholarship for PTK members, and special scholarships for students transferring from Ivy Tech Community College and Vincennes University.
