Students who are applying for study abroad will work with the Study Abroad Office to determine course equivalencies.

1. Courses for transfer credit must have been completed within 5 years of a student’s enrollment at Baruch.
2. Only graduate level courses completed in AACSB-international accredited graduate schools of business will be considered for transfer credit.
3. Course credit cannot have been applied towards the completion of another degree.
4. Students who seek transfer credit must be in good academic standing (3.0 GPA).
5. Transfer credit requests are subject to approval by the appropriate academic department and by the Office of Graduate Programs.
6. In general, courses must be equivalent to courses in the Baruch curriculum.
7. A course of less credit value cannot replace a 3-credit or 4-credit course unless in combination with another course to equal the course credit count.
8. A minimum grade of B is required in courses for which transfer credit is requested. Transfer credit grades are not calculated in the Baruch GPA.

Submit the following documents with your transfer credit application:

1. A transfer credit application for each course to be reviewed including course description and syllabus. All documents, including the application, must be emailed to your program advisor with the subject line “Transfer Credit Request.”
   
   
2. A letter on official letterhead confirming your resignation from prior graduate programs.
   
   
3. An official transcript showing the courses completed for transfer credit from prior graduate program. If you submitted a final official transcript with your application for admission, then you do not need to submit another copy.

Please contact your program advisor to request the transfer credit application:
