ASHLAND, Ohio – Ashland University is pleased to announce that it will accept transfer students from Siena Heights University. The Michigan school, located just north of Toledo, revealed on June 30 that it will be closing at the conclusion of the 2025-26 academic year.
Siena Heights students in good academic standing can expect admission to Ashland, a full transfer of credits, financial aid assistance and support throughout the transfer process, which will enable students to complete their degrees without interruption.
“We empathize with the challenging situation Siena Heights students find themselves in, and would happily welcome them to Ashland,” stated AU President Jon Parrish Peede. “As an institution in a similar geographic setting, with many comparable academic programs and an emphasis on Christian values, we feel the transition from Siena Heights to Ashland would be a smooth one.”
Ashland is working to become an official academic partner with Siena Heights. More information will be forthcoming.
