The Commission on Independent Colleges
and Universities (cIcu)
cIcu is a statewide association representing the public policy
interests of the chief executives of more than 100 independent
colleges and universities in New York State, the largest
private sector of higher education in the world. Although
not a government agency, cIcu is an educational corporation
formed under the New York State Regents. Its mission is to
develop consensus among a diverse membership and to
advance higher education public policy as the formal
organizational liaison with the New York State Board of
Regents, the State Commissioner of Education, and the
chancellors of the State University (SUNY) and City
University (CUNY); and with the proprietary sector.
Since 1978, cIcu’s Outreach Programs have produced helpful
resources and publications for students, parents, and schools
about cIcu’s 100+ member private, not-for-profit colleges and
universities, college admissions, and financial aid. Available
free of charge, annual publications include: Your College
Search and Affording College. These publications are
distributed to New York State high school guidance/college
counseling and principals’ offices, to school superintendents,
to public libraries and to selected high schools in surrounding
states. An extensive admissions and financial aid website,
www.nycolleges.org, contains a growing library of
downloadable college awareness resources as well as
databases of information about New York's private, not-forprofit colleges and universities and degree offerings.
Background on the Map2Transfer Manual
The National Student Research Center’s recent report,
Transfer and Mobility: A National Student Movement in
Postsecondary Institutions (2012), highlighted the scope of the
movement of students from one institution to another over
the course of their academic career. They found that a third
of all students transfer before earning a degree (p. 5).1 The
size of the shifts is significant. The number of students who
transfer in the fall, at the start of the academic year, has been
estimated at more than one million with another smaller wave
of students transferring at the start of the spring semester.2
A recent study, The Community College Route to the Bachelor’s
Degree (2014), identifies three barriers to community college
students’ quest for a bachelor’s degree:
This “Map-2-Transfer” project was conceived to provide
counselors and students with information to help them
navigate the transfer process to an independent college or
university. The project was funded with a federal College
Access Challenge Grant (CACG) awarded to the Commission
on Independent Colleges and Universities (cIcu) by the New
York State Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC),
the state agency designated to administer the State’s CACG
program since 2008. The goals and objectives of CACG
include providing students and their families with information
about college access to increase their participation in postsecondary education.
This Map-2-Transfer Manual was made possible with support
from cIcu member colleges and universities, which provided
the data that figure in this resource. The Tips-2-Transfer
section was written in collaboration with transfer experts
from the New York State Transfer and Articulation Association
(NYSTAA), a consortium of advisors and other professionals
from public, independent and proprietary colleges and
universities involved and interested in improving the college
transfer process (www.nystaa.org). The cIcu Outreach staff
wishes to extend a special thank you to the members of
NYSTAA Ad Hoc Committee who contributed their time,
expertise, and talents to assist in the development of this
project’s Tips-2-Transfer brochure series:

Map-2-Transfer Manual Overview
According to an April 2010 special report on transfer admission
by the National Association for College Admission Counseling
(NACAC), approximately one-third of students beginning at
either a two- or four-year institution transfers during the course
of their college career. Certainly, students’ paths to transfer
vary widely. A student who attends a community college may
transfer after finishing an associate degree. Or, a student may
start college, but stop for personal reasons and decide to
return to complete the degree at a different college after
several years. Other students may decide to complete their
degree at a college or university other than the one where
they began their studies. The purpose of this Manual,
“Map-2-Transfer,” is to provide students from these different
backgrounds guidance to help them navigate the transfer
process and continue with their postsecondary education plans.
The information in this Map-2-Transfer Manual is available
online at www.nycolleges.org. For more information about
college transfer, visit www.nystaa.org, www.nacacnet.org or
www.collegetransfer.net.

acceptance? This varies widely!
2. How many semesters/quarter hours and credits will be
required to complete a degree in my stated major field
of study?
3. What core/general education classes are required? Note
that universities/colleges have different requirements for
the courses they accept as transfer credits. Often it’s more
difficult to transfer credits from your third and fourth year
of college.
4. Is there a maximum number of credits that can be
transferred?
5. What courses and credits will be accepted for transfer
credit and what are their course equivalencies?
6. How will the transferred courses and requirements help

Tips-2-Transfer for Students Considering Transfer
3. What steps can I take to help me make my final
college choices?
Meet with a Transfer Counselor at your current
college/university.
Visit campuses! You want to get a feel for the culture
of a college to determine if it is a good fit for you.
Always meet with an admissions representative at the
university or college you’re interested in attending.
During the visit, inquire about potential scholarships,
housing, financial aid, and other important concerns.
4. What courses should I be taking now and how
will I know what credits will transfer?
Concentrate on the pre-requisites you’ll need to be
admitted into your chosen major. Note that many
colleges/universities have very specific criteria for the
transfer of major courses.
Review Course Equivalencies often found on the 4-year
institution’s website.
Tips-2-Transfer for Community
College or 2-Year College Students
Are you interested in pursuing a bachelor’s degree
following completion of your associate degree?
Or perhaps you wish to make a change and continue
your studies in a different area or major. Read on.
Q&A
Transferring from a 2-year to a 4-year college
or university
1. How do I identify my career interests?
Start at the end and ask yourself: Where do I want to end
up, and how do I get there? Think about your interests
and your skills, and how they can lead to different career
paths. Visit Explore Careers at GoCollegeNY.org for online
tools to match your interests with a career. Research
academic majors by visiting a career counselor at your
current college to help you explore your options.
2. How do I research transfer colleges/universities?
Think about what is important to you: majors offered,
GPA requirements, geographic location, size, cost,
selectivity, athletics, housing, religious affiliation, and
setting (urban, suburban, or rural). Search for colleges
that meet those criteria. There are many online college
search websites such as GoCollegeNY.org that will help.
Be sure you take a look at course equivalencies, often
found on an institution’s website, to determine how your
earned college credit will transfer.
Be sure to watch the deadlines for
submission of all applications.
5. How do I begin the application process?
Check the institution’s website for application procedures.
Some academic programs (e.g., nursing, teacher
education, social work) require a separate application in
addition to the general application.
Many universities/colleges prefer you apply online.
College applications are often found on the college’s
Admissions page in a link such as ‘Apply Now.’
Always pay attention to the deadlines!
6. Which transcripts do I need to send?
Request your official transcripts from your current
college and ALL other colleges attended, and from
your high school, if required by the college.
Keep track of who you submitted the transcript
request to, when the request was made, and the
mailing address you indicated on the request.
Questions to Ask Your
Transfer Counselor
Check with the Transfer Counselor at the institution to
which you are applying to be sure that you meet all
admission requirements and deadlines. Ask:
What courses and credits will be accepted for transfer
credit and what are their course equivalencies?
How will the transferred courses and requirements
enable me to earn the degree I am seeking?

It is very important to understand how your
current college/university credits will
transfer into the specific degree that you’re
interested in at the transfer college.
Tips-2-Transfer for Adult/
Returning-to-College Transfers
7. How do I apply for financial aid?
Contact each college’s financial aid office to ensure you
complete all paperwork required to be considered for all
types of financial aid.
Visit studentaid.ed.gov to learn about federal money for
higher education. Visit hesc.ny.gov for information about
New York State aid programs.
Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Do not wait to be accepted
before applying for financial aid!
Include all universities/colleges you are considering on your
FAFSA. Additional colleges can be added to your FAFSA
at a later date.
If you are a New York State resident applying to a
college in New York State, apply for TAP online at:
www.tap.hesc.ny.gov
Watch the deadlines for submission of all financial aid
applications.
8. How do I check the status of my application?
Call the college/university or go online to check the
status of your application.
Keep in contact with the Admissions staff at the
colleges/universities you are applying to throughout the
process. Ensure your contact information (telephone
number, email address, and mailing address) is current.
The university/college you are transferring
to will make the final decision about how
and if your previous college credits or credit
for life experience will transfer.
iv
It’s never too late to get back to college to finish your
studies! There are many options for adult or returning
students for either full-time or part-time study. Read
on to learn some of the important steps to take to
transition to a new university/college and request
transfer of previously-earned credits.
Q&A
Transfer Answers for Adult or
Returning-to-College Transfers
1. Why do colleges differentiate between traditional
and adult or returning-to-college transfer students?
Many universities and colleges have unique programs
specifically for adult/nontraditional students. For example,
the institution may have an Adult Division that only admits
students older than age 21. Frequently, classes are offered
at times that are more convenient to students who have
other day-time or work-week obligations (for example, in
the evening or weekends). An additional distinction is that
adult students are often defined as independent students
for financial aid eligibility.
2. Am I able to take one class or do I have to go
full time (12-15 credits)?
When you register for classes, you have the option to fully
matriculate, which means you are seeking a degree such
as a bachelor’s, or to register as a non-matriculated
student, meaning you are taking courses without the goal
of obtaining a degree. As a matriculated, full-time student
you may have access to financial aid, scholarships and
grants. A matriculated part-time student has fewer financial
aid options, but may still be eligible for certain programs.
Be sure to check with the college’s financial aid office.
3. I know that I want to enroll at a certain college;
where do I begin?
Research the program at the college/university you are
most interested in attending. Schedule a campus visit to
go on a tour and meet with an admissions representative.
Tips-2-Transfer
If you can’t visit, or are more comfortable speaking with a
counselor over the phone or via email, be sure that you
have done your research in advance and prepare your
questions carefully.
4. How can I afford a college or university?
Find out the institution’s costs and what the average
financial aid package is for adult/returning-to-college
students. Also ask what percentage of students receives
financial aid, what scholarships or grants are offered at
the college, and the qualifications needed to be awarded
aid. Always be realistic about your finances.
Do not wait to be accepted before filing for financial aid!
Check with the college to determine which forms you need
to file and when you need to file them to be considered for all
types of aid. Be sure to complete and submit all applications
for aid and scholarships by the specified deadlines.
5. What are my housing options?
Contact the campus Residential Life Office to inquire
about housing for adult students. If you have a family
and will require campus housing, be sure to ask if family
housing is available. Most colleges will be able to provide
information about off-campus apartments or, at a minimum,
recommend a local realtor.
6. I need childcare; where can I get help?
Some institutions offer on-site childcare. There are often
certain requirements you must meet to be eligible for
this service.
7. How will I know what courses will transfer?
Take a look at Course Equivalencies often found on a
college or university’s website.
The university or college you are transferring to will make
the final decision about how and if your college credits or
credit for life experience will transfer. Talk with a Transfer
Counselor at the institution you will be attending to discuss
your Transfer Credit Evaluation.
8. How do I begin the application process?
Check the college’s website for application procedures.
Some academic programs (e.g., nursing, teacher education,
social work) often require a separate application in addition
to the general application.
Most universities/colleges prefer you apply online.
College applications are often found on the college’s
Admissions page in a link such as ‘Apply Now.’
Watch the deadlines!
9. Which transcripts do I need to send?
There are three types of transcripts – high school, college,
and for U.S. Armed Service Veterans, military transcripts.
Request your official transcripts from ALL the colleges
you have attended and from your high school, if required by
the college.
For veterans, contact your military branch to obtain your
military transcript.
Tips-2-Transfer for Veterans and
Active Duty Service Members
If you are a veteran or currently in the military, there
are many opportunities to help you continue your
college education. In addition, military veterans may
be eligible for academic credit for certain educational
experiences or military course credit. Many campuses
have dedicated counselors and advisors to help military
and veteran students transfer and transition to campus.
Read on to learn the important steps to transfer.
Q&A
Transfer Answers for Veteran and Military Students
1. How do I identify my career interests?
Start at the end and ask yourself: Where do I want to end
up, and how do I get there? Think about your interests and
your skills, including those learned in the military, and how
they can lead to different career paths.
2. How do I research transfer colleges?
Think about what is important to you: majors offered,
geographic location, size, cost, selectivity, athletics,
housing, religious affiliation and setting (urban, suburban,
or rural). Search for colleges that meet those criteria.
When researching, take notes on important information
such as GPA requirements, application deadlines, transfer
contact person, guaranteed housing, and scholarship
information.
It is very important to understand how your college and
military credits will transfer into the specific degree that
you’re interested in at the transfer college.
Ask if any of your military training will be used as
college credits, and if so, how. The majority of institutions
use the American Council on Education (ACE)
recommendations on applying specific military courses
and training as credit toward a college degree, but how
and when they are applied may be determined by the
academic program you’re pursuing.
Ask if the college offers support for military students –
and what kind of support.
v
3. What steps can I take to help me make my
final college choices?
Talk with your academic advisor or contact a Transfer
Counselor at your college if you’re currently attending a
community college or other 2-year institution.
There are many online college search websites such as
GoCollegeNY.org.
Visit campuses if possible. You want to get a feel for the
personality of the college to determine if it is a good fit
for you.
Always contact an admissions representative at the
university or college you’re interested in attending. Inquire
about potential scholarships, housing, financial aid, and
other important concerns.
4. What courses should I be taking now and how
will I know what credits will transfer?
Discuss your transfer plans with a Transfer Counselor or
Education Services Officer at your current college – they
can help guide you.
Concentrate on the pre-requisites you’ll need to be
admitted into your chosen academic major. If you’re just
starting out and unsure of your final major, focus on taking
general education/core requirements (for example, history,
humanities, foreign language, etc.), not the major courses
themselves. Note that many institutions have very specific
criteria for the transfer of major courses.
Review Course Equivalencies often found on the 4-year
colleges and universities’ websites.
Remember that the college or university you are considering
transferring to is your best resource to ensure your transfer
planning is on the right track. They will make the final
decision about how and if your credits will transfer.
5. How do I begin the application process?
Check the college’s website for applications.
Some academic programs (e.g., nursing, teacher
education, social work) require a separate application
in addition to the general application.
Most institutions prefer you apply online. Applications
are often found on the institution’s Admissions page in
a link such as ‘Apply Now.’
Always pay attention to the deadlines!
vi
6. Which transcripts do I need to send?
Request your official transcripts from ALL colleges
attended and from your high school, if required by the
college.
Active and Veteran members of the U.S. Armed Forces
should also submit their personal military transcripts for
possible credit. Links to obtain transcripts for each
branch of service can be found on the American Council
on Education website (www.acenet.edu).
Keep track of who you submitted the request to and
when requests were made.
7. How do I apply for financial aid?
Contact each college’s financial aid office to ensure you
completed all forms required to be considered for all types
of financial aid.
Do not wait to be accepted before applying for financial aid!
To learn more about aid for college, visit
http://studentaid.ed.gov/types/grants-scholarships/military
For New York State residents attending an approved
college in the state, learn more about Veteran Tuition
Awards at www.hesc.ny.gov. Search for “Veterans.”
Apply for your VA benefits at www.ebenefits.va.gov.
Fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student
Aid) at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Include all universities and colleges you are considering
on your FAFSA. Additional colleges can be added to your
FAFSA at a later date.
Watch the deadlines!
As a Veteran or Active Duty Service Member, you may
be entitled to benefits from the Post-9/11 GI Bill or the
pre-existing Montgomery GI Bill-Active Duty (MGIB).
Many colleges also participate in the Yellow Ribbon
Program as an additional grant to service members and
eligible beneficiaries. Note that not every veteran is
eligible to receive these benefits, and not all institutions
are Yellow Ribbon participants, so be sure to ask. Also
discuss with your military advisors which benefits package
is best for you. Visit www.veterans.ny.gov for more
information. These programs have limits in both funds
and duration, so applying for additional aid (e.g.,
scholarships, grants) may be important, as will the
number of transfer credits you receive toward the
intended degree since this will help determine how
long it will take to earn your degree.
8. How do I check the status of my application?
Keep in contact with the Admissions staff at the
universities and colleges you are applying to throughout
the process. Ensure your contact information (telephone
number, email address, and mailing address) is current.
Check on the status of your military transcripts – see
page vii for contact information.

The credit evaluation shows how courses will transfer in general. With the credit
evaluation, we also send students a degree audit, which tracks progress in both
general education and major courses.
Once a transfer student has been accepted, the transcripts will be evaluated by the
Office of the Registrar. You should receive your Transfer Credit Evaluation with your
acceptance letter. Generally, only traditional liberal arts and science types of classes
will be deemed acceptable. Courses accepted from other institutions should be
comparable to those in the current Hartwick College catalogue. Only courses with
grades of C or better will be transferable. A maximum of 60 semester hours of credit
may be transferred. Hartwick College will generally honor an associate of arts or
associate of science degree from accredited colleges by offering the equivalent of
two years of credit.

TRANSFER CREDIT AND CREDIT EVALUATION
Maximum Credits Transfer In:
The maximum transfer credit for students from an accredited Bachelor's program
is the difference between the required 30 credits in residency at NYIT and the
total credits required for the NYIT degree. For example, if an NYIT degree requires
120 credits, students transferring from a Bachelor's program are eligible for a
maximum of 90 transfer credits. NYIT will accept up to 70 credits from appropriately
accredited 2-year schools or Associate degree programs.
Note: Courses can be transferred only if they apply to a student's requirements for
his or her chosen major at NYIT. Additional coursework not directly applicable to
specific degree requirements may transfer as elective credit. Transfer credit will
not be awarded in excess of degree requirements.
Maximum Credits from a 2-Year College:
NYIT will accept up to 70 credits from appropriately accredited 2-year schools or
Associate degree programs.
Maximum Credits from a 4-Year College:
The maximum transfer credit for students from an accredited Bachelor's program
is the difference between the required 30 credits in residency at NYIT and the
total credits required for the NYIT degree.

Is the Credit Evaluation General or

When Does Credit Evaluation Take Place?
In order to be eligible for graduation, undergraduate students must complete a
minimum of 30 credits toward their degree at NYIT. A minimum of 15 credits in
the major must be taken at NYIT. At least 9 credits must be advance level
courses (300 or higher) in the major field of study.
No
The evaluators create a customized degree map that shows the total number of
credits transferred and the remaining coursework you need to complete your
degree at NYIT. Courses can be transferred only if they apply to a student's
requirements for his or her chosen major at NYIT. Additional coursework not
directly applicable to specific degree requirements may transfer as elective credit.
After you're accepted, your transcripts are given to transfer credit evaluators who
review them on a course-by-course basis for credit applicable toward your major.
FINANCIAL AID FOR TRANSFERS

Transfer Financial Aid Application Deadline:

of $2,000 yearly scholarships are granted to incoming transfer students who are
members of Phi Theta Kappa.
