Transfer from RACC

Meeting 100% of student financial need.

Albright is committed to making a bachelor’s degree accessible and affordable for Reading Area Community College graduates. Albright will provide RACC graduates with a financial aid award that will cover 100% of their tuition financial need through the awarding of Albright scholarships, need-based aid, government grants and the Subsidized Stafford Loan for an undergraduate degree.

Our degree fast track. Graduate in as few as 12-18 months. Transfer students who have earned their associate degree from RACC will receive a block transfer for the general education requirements and take only one general education course at Albright.  Our transfer policy enables students to transfer up to 90 credits from other institutions. This means students may need to complete as few as 30 credits in order to earn their Bachelor’s degree.

Quick admission decision and course credit evaluation. Albright is dedicated to giving RACC students the answers they need quickly. Applicants from RACC will receive their admission decision and credit evaluation within 72 hours of submitting their complete application.

One-on-one support to maximize student success. All students are connected with a dedicated academic advisor. Transfer students are assigned to a Student Success Coach whose sole purpose is to help students succeed.

Albright- RACC Connection Scholarship. In honor of the strength and shared institutional commitment to the RACC and Albright College partnership, Reading Area Community College graduates with a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher and transfer to Albright for the fall semester can be considered for the full undergraduate tuition scholarship. Must be eligible for Title IV funding.
