Bradley Receives National Honor for Transfer Excellence

August 8, 2025

Bradley University is proud to announce its recognition by the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society (PTK) as one of the esteemed institutions on the PTK 2025 Transfer Honor Roll. This accolade highlights Bradley’s commitment to supporting and advancing the academic journeys of transfer students.

This year’s PTK Transfer Honor Roll acknowledges 251 colleges and universities nationwide that have demonstrated outstanding achievements in creating dynamic pathways to support transfer students. Institutions were selected based on their excellence in areas such as transfer-friendly policies, academic support, admissions practices, and scholarships tailored for transfer students.

“Being recognized by Phi Theta Kappa affirms Bradley’s commitment to making the transfer experience smooth, welcoming, and student-centered,” said Dr. Angie Cooksy, Vice President for Enrollment, Marketing and Communications at Bradley University. “We’re intentional about supporting transfer students through their unique journeys and take pride in the valuable perspectives they contribute to our campus community.”

The Transfer Honor Roll was based on analysis from the National Student Clearinghouse, and on data submitted through the four-year institution’s profile on PTK Connect, Phi Theta Kappa’s online tool designed to help students find their best-fit colleges and career pathways.

The Transfer Honor Roll is determined by 40 key metrics related to the support and success of transfer students, including college cost and financial aid, campus life for transfer, admission practices, and bachelor’s degree completion. For the full PTK 2025 Transfer Honor Roll list click here.
