for their specific situation.
UNIVERSITY CENTER – Davenport University (DU), like Central Michigan University, Ferris State University and many others, has a transfer program with Delta College that makes transfers and degree continuation a breeze.
Crystal Pfuehler, education partner representative for DU, helps get students on track to get into these transfer programs.
An education representative assists students transitioning from a two-year college to a four-year university. Pfuehler helps students who don’t know what their plans are after finishing core classes, or their associates degrees, to make the transition seamlessly.
How much is a credit hour and what transfer programs are offered?
The in-seat tuition cost at DU is $767; online tuition is $777. According to Pfuehler, “95% of students receive financial assistance, whether that be scholarships, state or federal grants, or DU tuition grants. DU offers merit-based scholarships for students who earn a 3.75 or above at Delta, or 20% off tuition just for transferring to DU from Delta.”
There are three options for transfer to DU:
- The 3+1 program – This program allows students to transfer 90 credits to Davenport, meaning most students can earn their bachelor’s degree in just 10 classes, or 30 credits, at DU.
- The 60+ program – Not just for seniors! This is for students who earn an associate degree but decide they want to go in a different direction with their bachelor’s. DU will accept all 60 credits of the associate, leaving 60 to take for the bachelor’s.
- Customized transfer plans, aka. Articulation on Demand – This allows undecided students or those with transcripts from multiple schools to continue with credits earned at Delta.
Davenport offers resume building, interview skills, salary and benefit negotiation, free lifetime access to Career Services, and free brush-up classes. Brush-up classes allow students to retake any undergraduate class they’ve passed.
Davenport University has 150 years of experience, and with their student to faculty ratio of 12:1, they successfully help busy adults achieve their goals and push them to their personal best.
