SLU provides an official evaluation of transfer credits and a preliminary degree audit for admitted transfer students.

Transfer credit evaluation begins in February for fall and summer entry students and will generally be posted to your account up to two weeks after admission. This process begins in October for spring entry students and may take up to four weeks to post to your account depending on internal processing volume.

View your credit evaluation in Degree Works via mySLU.

International transfer credit: If you completed courses at an international college or university, additional information is required for transfer credit evaluation. Please send copies of your course descriptions or syllabi translated in English to articulation@slu.edu to request an evaluation of your transfer credit. You must be admitted to SLU prior to requesting credit evaluation.

1. Review your financial aid. Award notice emails are sent starting in February for summer/fall students, or October for spring students.
2. For need-based financial assistance, complete and file the FAFSA. SLU’s FAFSA school code is 002506. See additional information regarding the FAFSA.
3. Accept or decline your financial aid offer.
4. Complete your Master Promissory Note at studentaid.gov if you accepted loans.
5. Make arrangements to pay your final account balance. First payment is due Aug. 1 for fall students, or after registration for summer and spring students.

To confirm your enrollment at SLU, you'll need to submit your $500 enrollment deposit. Your enrollment deposit secures your place at the University and should be submitted once you have decided to attend SLU. Course registration and academic advising cannot be scheduled until the enrollment deposit has been received. If you decide not to attend SLU, you will forfeit your enrollment deposit.

Submit Your Enrollment Deposit

Once you've logged into mySLU, you can:

Stay in Touch

• SLU email: Be sure to log in to your @slu.edu address regularly for important reminders and updates from us. If you applied to SLU using your school email address, please contact your admission counselor before your previous school email account becomes inactive with an alternative email address.

Tell Us Your Housing Preferences
