Transfer of Credit
Acceptance of Transfer Credits at NYCI
Applicants with past formal post-secondary training may be granted transfer credit toward program completion at NYCI. The Dean of Academic Affairs may grant transfer credit for coursework taken at another accredited school in which a grade of "C" or better was earned. Courses transferred must be substantially equivalent to the corresponding courses for which the student is seeking credit at the NYCI. Transfer credit does not carry a grade and has no impact on a student’s Grade Point Average (GPA).
Students must furnish official transcripts from each accredited post- secondary school previously attended to receive applicable transfer credit. All transcripts must be sent directly from the issuing institution to the Registrar at NYCI. The student should meet with the Registrar during the enrollment process in order to facilitate timely receipt of transcripts. NYCI may request course descriptions from the previous college’s catalog in order to determine course equivalency. Official transcripts and course descriptions, if needed, must be received by the Dean prior to the end of the student’s first term in order to be evaluated for transfer credit. Generally, students may not receive combined transfer and proficiency credits totaling more than 50% of the program for which they are enrolled. Exceptions may be made after review and approval by the Dean of Academic Affairs.
Acceptance of NYCI Credits at Other Schools
NYCI makes no claims of transferability of credits earned at NYCI to other colleges or schools. In all cases, the transferability of credits is at the discretion of the receiving institution, and hence is outside of NYCI's control. Further, since NYCI's programs are specifically targeted and career-based, transfer to a dissimilar program will probably result in few credits that are applicable to another discipline.
