Transcripts – We need both your secondary school and university level transcripts in order to give you transfer credit for classes previously completed. Instructions for submissions are below:
1. Secondary School – An official sealed copy of your transcripts must be sent to Asbury University directly from your secondary institution. If your transcripts are not in English, then a literal translated copy will need to be sent also.
2. University transcripts – There are two methods to submit university transcripts depending on where the courses were completed.
  1. For universities within the U.S., an official copy of your transcript must be requested to be sent to Asbury University
  2. Applicants seeking transfer from an institution outside of the U.S. must submit authenticated copies of all international transcripts to the Office of Admissions through the World Education Services credential services clearinghouse. This is to ensure maximum transfer of credits for the student.
