Seattle Pacific Transfer Promise

Transfer students make up an important part of the Seattle Pacific University campus community. That’s why we are the first university to respond to the Seattle mayor’s Seattle Promise that provides free community college to Seattle area students.

Are you a Seattle Promise recipient? If so, we have an exclusive opportunity designed for you.

Beginning in autumn 2020, we are offering the Seattle Pacific Transfer Promise: an exclusive, discounted pathway to SPU for students enrolled in the Seattle Promise program. It's our commitment to supporting Seattle area community college students as they finish four-year degrees and start their futures.
