WCC/SUNY Polytechnic Institute, Transfer Agreement

Agreement Highlights

• Students must graduate from Westchester Community College.
• WCC students who graduate with an A.A. or A.S. or A.A.S. degree with a minimum GPA of 2.5 will be guaranteed acceptance to SUNY Poly and will transfer with junior standing. The only exception is for students transferring into the Nanoscale Engineering degree program which requires a 2.75 GPA.
• By virtue of completion of an A.A. or A.S. degree at WCC, all students are waived of the lower level general education/core requirements at SUNY Polytechnic Institute.
• A maximum of 76 credits will be applied toward the completion of the articulated SUNY Polytechnic Institute Bachelor’s degree program. If all credits do not count for requirements in the major, they will then count as elective credit toward the degree.
