^ I second this notion. Credits won’t transfer if NYU doesn’t have equivalent classes, but I see no reason to single out SMC.



Each school within NYU accepts a different number of transfer credits. Some schools and departments will allow you to transfer 64 credits to NYU while other schools and departments will only allow you to transfer 30 credits to NYU. Please check with your individual school to see how many credits you are allowed to transfer in. Many schools also have a “residency requirement”. This means that you are required to take a certain number of credits at NYU. Likewise, NYU only accepts credits for courses in which you received a grade of “C” or higher.

It is recommended that you keep syllabi and writing samples of all previous courses you took. These might be needed when evaluating your courses for transfer credits. Until your transfer credit is finalized, you are not considered fully matriculated in NYU. Hence your standing at NYU will read “Freshman” until transfer credit is finalized.

General rule of thumb is the longer you’ve been out of high school, the less high school grades matter.
