Fisher Named to PTK’s Transfer Honor Roll

For the eighth consecutive year, Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society (PTK) has named St. John Fisher University as a “transfer-friendly” campus.

Fisher was one of 251 colleges and universities included in PTK’s 2025 Transfer Honor Roll, an acknowledgement of the myriad ways the University supports its transfer students.

The Transfer Honor Roll highlights the importance of creating strong transfer pathways that lead to excellence and success among community college transfer students. Institutions are chosen based on 40 key metrics related to the support and success of transfer students, including cost and financial aid, campus life for transfer students, admission practices, and bachelor’s degree completion. Colleges completing the PTK Connect profile are given a Transfer Friendliness Rating. The Transfer Honor Roll is chosen from among the top 25 percent highest-rated colleges.

“I’m proud of the transfer outcomes we’re seeing at these Honor Roll colleges,” said Dr. Lynn Tincher-Ladner, president and CEO of Phi Theta Kappa. “These colleges are doing more than just opening doors—they’re walking students through them. Their commitment to creating clear, supportive pathways demonstrates what’s possible when student success is truly the priority.”

Phi Theta Kappa is the premier honor society recognizing the academic achievement of students at associate degree-granting colleges and helping them to grow as scholars and leaders. The Society is made up of more than 3.8 million members and nearly 1,300 chapters in 10 countries, with approximately 240,000 active members in the nation’s colleges.
