Admitted Transfer Students
Welcome, transfer students!
We get it—you already know the ropes and understand what it’s like to be a college student. Still, every campus is different, and we want to ensure you receive any support you may need during your transition to Hamline.
Our staff is here to help you navigate a new campus with new policies, procedures, and culture. We can answer questions about your transfer credits, financial aid, and academic advising and help you jump into life at Hamline.

2. Apply for financial aid
Apply now for consideration for spring 2025 and after December 1, 2024, for financial aid for fall 2025. Your financial aid package from Hamline University may consist of merit scholarships, talent scholarships, and need-based grants, loans, or work options. If you have any questions, your admission counselor can help guide you through the financial aid process.
3. Reserve your on-campus housing
New students who have paid the $400 enrollment deposit will receive emailed instructions for completing the online housing application. Housing and dining contracts are available starting in April for students beginning the fall term and in December for students starting in the spring.
4. Submit your official final transcripts and test scores
Transcripts must be official and should be sent from college or university directly to Hamline. Transcripts can be sent electronically or mailed by your school to Hamline. If you sent your transcript earlier and anticipate completing another term at your current institution, please send your updated transcripts to Hamline so we may evaluate them for course equivalencies.
6. Complete new student onboarding
New students who have submitted an enrollment deposit will receive information for a Hamline Workday account, which is the student portal. You will need to complete several steps in Workday. In addition, you will review information about submitting your immunization records in compliance with Minnesota state law.
7. Attend orientation
We’ll automatically register you to attend a mandatory new student orientation before the term begins. We make sure you get what you need for a successful Hamline experience. Watch your email for more information.
