Bellevue University Earns Place on Phi Theta Kappa 2026 Transfer Honor Roll

Bellevue University has been named to Phi Theta Kappa's 2026 Transfer Honor Roll for its support of transfer students and transfer pathways.

Phi Theta Kappa recognized 275 four-year colleges and universities on this year's Honor Roll. Institutions were evaluated using data from the National Student Clearinghouse and PTK Connect, Phi Theta Kappa's online platform that connects community college students with transfer opportunities.

The evaluation measures how institutions support transfer students from admission through graduation. Colleges are assessed in five areas:

  • Transfer student success outcomes
  • Credit mobility and degree applicability
  • Financial support for transfer students
  • Recruitment and admissions practices
  • Campus engagement and support for transfer students
Dr. Mary Hawkins, Bellevue University President

We are very proud of our continued recognition by Phi Theta Kappa. Supporting transfer students has always been part of who we are. We value the credits, experiences and perspectives they bring to Bellevue University, and we're committed to helping them take the next step toward earning their degree.

Dr. Mary Hawkins, Bellevue University President

This recognition is about much more than transfer agreements. Successful transfer happens when institutions intentionally design policies, practices, and campus cultures that help students thrive after they arrive. These colleges have demonstrated that transfer student success is not accidental. It is a strategic priority.

Dr. Lynn Tincher-Ladner, President and CEO of Phi Theta Kappa
