Palm Beach Atlantic University

Let Us Help You Transfer

You’ve attended other institutions. Now you’re ready for more. You’re ready to attend a university that offers you more than just a degree. You’re ready for learning that isn’t confined to a building. You’re ready for professors who want to help you build not just a résumé, but also a life. And you’re ready for an education that has the potential not only to impact your life, but the lives of others. You’re ready to transfer to Palm Beach Atlantic University — Florida’s top Christian college.

Located on the water in West Palm Beach, PBA offers:

• A Christ-centered education — that infuses our 48 undergraduate majors and more than 50 courses of study; graduate programs; our “smart” classrooms; and our state-of-the-art facilities
• Dedicated faculty — Christian men and women who are not only brilliant, but are down-to-earth and committed to your success
• Small classes — with a 13:1 student-to-faculty ratio and an average class size of just 17, you and your professors truly get to know one another
• Research opportunities — the chance to work alongside your professors even in your first year
• Community service — we call it “Workship” (“work” and “worship”), an extensive community service program where you’ll serve God by serving others
• A tropical location — to enhance your leisure time through water sports and relaxing on the beach—and to enhance your learning time through aquatic research
• Internships — with the Palm Beaches right out your door, you’ll intern at some of top companies in the nation
• Student services — including access to an advisor who will partner with you throughout your time at PBA
• Clubs and organizations — more than 50 in fact — so that you can make friends, develop as a leader and have fun
• Division II athletics — as well as intramurals and club sports — and a 96-acre athletic campus coming in the near future

Transferring to PBA
We want to make your transfer to PBA as seamless as possible.
To begin the process, please submit:

• A completed application
• An autobiographical essay
• A nonrefundable $50 application fee
• Official transcripts from all postsecondary institutions you have attended (please note: we require a 2.5 minimum GPA with at least 12 semester credit hours of coursework or the equivalent)
• If you were a full-time student at another institution for at least one semester and earned 12 or more semester hours of acceptable PBA credit, you do not need to submit ACT/SAT scores or a high school transcript
