How GPA affects students’ admission

As admissions counselors, we understand that although GPA is important, it does not tell the whole story of who you are. We ask that students have a minimum of 2.5+ GPA because we want each person to be set up for success in our academic programs. If you feel that your GPA is not an accurate representation of your ability and performance, explain why in your application essay. We want to get to know you personally, not just academically. Tell us about the obstacles you’ve overcome and why you connect with the mission and values of SPU.

转移学分

If a students’ courses are not listed in the Transfer Course Equivalency Guide, we are glad to offer a preliminary transcript evaluation if students do one of the following:

After completing one of the above, students can request a transcript evaluation by submitting the following information:

  1. 全名
  2. SPU ID Number (if known)
  3. All college(s) attended (attach unofficial transcripts for each)
  4. If you would like additional class(es) evaluated that are not listed on your transcripts, please provide the course name, number and description for each class.
  5. 目的主要(s)
  6. Intended quarter of enrollment

Please allow at least two weeks’ notice to process your request. Students can submit their request by emailing transfer@nc2010.com.

奖学金 and affordability

学费款

We know that rising college costs are a consistent concern for students accessing the colleges of their choice and pursuing their dreams. 在回应, Seattle Pacific reduced tuition by 25%, introduced new scholarship initiatives, and put a cap on future tuition increases.

Faith at Seattle Pacific

Founded in the Free Methodist tradition, SPU is a Christian university. All faculty and staff are committed to their Christian faith, with over 50 denominations represented. Students are not required to sign a statement of faith to attend SPU, so there is a welcome space for students who want to grow deeper in their Christian faith, for those who align with other faiths, or for those who do not practice a faith tradition at all.  

As part of SPU’s general education curriculum, students explore or grow deeper in Christian faith through three required courses. For those students wanting to pursue additional ways to grow in their Christian faith, 教堂, 圣经学习小组, 礼拜仪式, amongst other optional opportunities, are spaces in which students can choose to engage.

  • Seattle Pacific accepts students who are not Christian.
  • About 75% of students profess Christian faith or come from a Christian background.  
  • All faculty and staff come from Christian faith backgrounds and represent over 30 different Christian faith traditions, Protestant and Catholic.
