To prepare for studying within the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, each academic major
has key foundation courses that competitive transfer candidates need to complete or have in
progress at the time of their education.
The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and Cornell University reserve the right to determine, in their sole
discretion, whether course credit earned at other schools, either secondary or post-secondary, meet the College’s and the
University’s academic standards and will therefore be eligible to be applied toward Cornell degree
requirements. Applicants and matriculated students should not assume that, because a particular course taken at
another school is listed as a recommended course or a foundational course, it will necessarily be eligible for Cornell
credit.
