Transfer and Transition Students
What is a transfer student?
A transfer student is an individual who has completed some college coursework and is seeking to transfer to another learning institution to complete their desired degree program. Our transfer students take advantage of the same resources and opportunities as our freshman and graduate students. Some of the resources that our transfer students find particularly helpful are:
Are Transfer Students eligible for scholarships?
Yes! At CECH, we care about the transfer student experience and the financial implications that our students may encounter. CECH offers college-specific scholarships to all transfer students from various institutions. Awarded scholarships can be combined with university scholarships for transfer students as well. To learn more about the university scholarships opportunities, visit the main scholarship and funding page.
What is a transition student?
A transition student is an individual who falls in one of two categories:
- Begins coursework at one of our regional campuses, UC Blue Ash or UC Clermont.
- Changes majors within the university.
Students from a regional campus typically begin an associate's degree program with the expectation of transitioning to UC's Uptown Campus to complete the bachelor's degree program.

Why would a student begin at a regional campus?
Prospective students who are interested in pursuing a bachelor's degree in any of our majors, may not meet the admission requirements, initially. Starting at UC Blue Ash or UC Clermont can be advantageous as it allows students an opportunity to take the program-required coursework at a lower cost per credit hour rate. It also provides students an opportunity to become college-ready before they transition to the Uptown campus. The program requirements can determine if you should start at a regional campus. Speak to our Admissions Counselor below to learn which campus is your best option.
