At Davenport, transfer students are a vital part of our student body. You bring experience to share and inspire others with your focus on career goals. We set you up for success with personal transfer planning, assigned personal academic advisors, generous financial aid and career guidance for life.
With about 40% of our students being transfer students, you won’t be alone on this journey.
As you make the transfer from Grand Rapids Community College, Davenport University will connect you with our dedicated transfer admissions team to help you get the most transfer college credits, connect you with financial aid and provide the guidance you need every step of the way.
Davenport makes education affordable. That’s why our tuition is one of the lowest of all private colleges and universities in Michigan.
All transfer students have a guaranteed transfer scholarship waiting for them once they apply because we want to help you advance and don’t want finances to stand in the way. These scholarships range from $4,500 to $6,500.
And if you’re a member of Phi Theta Kappa, you qualify for an additional scholarship of $1,500.
You could go to Davenport University for free if you win the President's Transfer Scholarship! The scholarship is specifically for GRCC students with a GPA of 3.5 or higher and a completed associate's degree.* The application will be opening April 2024 and will go through June 1.
“From the moment I submitted my application, I knew Davenport was going to be beneficial. It was a very important decision I had to make for my future. Davenport even helps you receive a job after graduation if you don’t find one. I am currently pursuing a BBA, and the professors are wonderful and beyond helpful, as well as the staff on campus. I take classes online and took classes at Davenport’s Holland Campus. The option of taking 7-week classes is great if you’re trying to knock classes out quickly. My first semester here has been great!”
