HLGU Aiding MacMurray Transfers After College Shuts Down

Following MacMurray College’s announcement that the institution will close and stop all enrollments, Hannibal-LaGrange University is stepping in to offer academic transfer plans along with additional scholarships to any former MacMurray students who are now in search of a way to complete their degrees.

In an effort to make the transition as smooth as possible, HLGU is instituting a $3,000 MacMurray Scholarship which will be applied on top of any transfer, academic, or other scholarships the students would be eligible for. Additionally, the University is waiving the 32 credit hour residency requirement so seniors at MacMurray can transfer to HLGU and finish their degree without taking extra classes.

“We are pleased to work with MacMurray College students who find themselves in this transition,” said Dr. Anthony Allen, HLGU President. “Hannibal-LaGrange stands ready to help any students who would be interested in attending HLGU. Students and athletes alike will hopefully find HLGU to be a place to conclude their education in close proximity.”

MacMurray College is located in Jacksonville, Illinois, an hour east of Hannibal.

For more information about the MacMurray Scholarship or transferring credits, contact the HLGU Admissions office at 573.629.3264, or via email at admissions@hlg.edu.
