With this information the Admission Committee will make a preliminary evaluation of a student’s record. The applicant will be notified of acceptance or rejection. He/she will also be informed of the number of transfer credits granted. Ordinarily transfer students must earn fifty percent (50%) of the credit for graduation at Manhattan College. “P” grades may be accepted for credit but only if they represent a “C” or better as defined by the regulations of the institution of origin. All of the above credentials must be on file in the Admissions Office before an application is reviewed for admission. All acceptances for students who have work in progress at another college or university are conditional upon successful completion of work in progress without withdrawals and with a minimum index of 2.50. Transfer Articulation Agreements do exist with a number of two-year colleges, i.e., Rockland Community College, Westchester Community College, Nassau Community College, Hudson Valley Community College, Bergen Community College, and Morris Community College.
