Are you an Ole?

We are looking for curious, intelligent, well-rounded and inspiring individuals who want a college experience that will challenge and empower them to be citizens of substance who will shape the world.

A transfer student is defined by someone who has attempted or earned college credit after graduation from high school or a student who had obtained their GED.

During the admissions process, the registrar provides the applicant with an evaluation of transfer credit. St. Olaf College does not have a specific, transfer credit page and we do not award credits based on a block-transfer policy. If you would like to learn more about which credits will transfer to St. Olaf, please contact your admissions representative.

Note: You are welcome to submit an unofficial transcript for a preliminary credit evaluation but an official copy is necessary for your application to the college.
