Services for Transfer
students:
Transcript
evaluation…
Once we receive a copy
of your official
transcripts, we can
evaluate them to
determine how many of
your credits will
transfer to Briar Cliff.
If you are planning to
transfer after
completing a two year
program at a community
college, our transfer
counselor will work with
you to plan the classes
you should take at the
community college.
Just call us or make an
appointment to visit.
Individualized
visit…
We invite you to visit
campus and experience
Briar Cliff for
yourself. To make the
most of your visit to
campus, contact us at
least a week before you
plan to visit. We
recommend that you visit
during a week day when
classes are in session
to get a better look at
what life as a Briar
Cliff student is all
about.
Career Services…
Briar Cliff University’s
Career Services Office
will help you with
securing not only that
first job, but the best
job for you. We provide
assistance in resume
development,
interviewing and
successful job search
techniques. In addition,
internships are
available in virtually
every department at
businesses and
organizations in Sioux
City and throughout the
region.
Academic Planning…
Briar Cliff assigns each
incoming student to a
faculty advisor who is
trained in course
selection and
registration. You will
meet with your advisor
at least three times per
year. He or she will
help you select courses
and plan your academic
program.
Scholarships…
Briar Cliff University
recognizes that
scholarships are
important to students.
The university awards
scholarships to
academically qualified
transfer students. The
scholarships are awarded
in varying amounts and
are based on the
student’s prior academic
grade point average.
Scholarships are
determined by the head
coach of each sport.
