Transfer Students

City College evaluates credits for transfer from nationally or regionally accredited colleges and universities, technical and business schools. Credits are accepted for transfer provided:

 

  1. The courses are similar in objectives and content to those offered by City College.
  2. The courses can be applied toward graduation requirements.
  3. The letter grade (or equivalent) in the course is "C" or better (provided the "C" grade is defined as average or better).

 

Transfer credits for Nursing and EMS core courses must be a minimum “B” grade. City College does not accept transfer credits of NU/NUR prefix courses for the Nursing Program. Semester credits are multiplied by one and one-third to convert them into quarter credits. Fractional portions of credits are rounded on a course-to-course basis.

 

Credits in the area of general education may be accepted when earned before the seven year limit. The decision of the Director of Education/Director of Health Sciences Education is final on questions of transfer.
