    Hi Jackie🙂 I think I was talking about the RN to BS in Nursing online degree programat CUNY School of Professional Studies (CUNY SPS). I'll put the link below and there are some info sessions coming up real soon but make sure you talk to your advisor or someone in admissions. Let them know your goals and they can help guide you through. You can even ask if they know about programs with "non-traditional hours." If someone isn't helpful, keep asking until you find someone who is. There are great opportunities out there for you. Check out this page: sps.cuny.edu/academics/undergraduate/bachelor-science-nursing-bs and this page for the master's program: sps.cuny.edu/academics/graduate/master-science-nursing-education

As far as I can see, official score reports & transcript request forms with attached international transcripts & translations/evaluations always have to be mailed to CUNY/UAPC. I'm all for creative solutions when pressed for time though, so maybe you can call and ask if you can upload with a note that official copies are in the mail.

The application is still the same😉 Here's the 2021 admission profile: www.cuny.edu/admissions/undergraduate/apply/academic-profiles / So it looks like an 88 will be a reach but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try. Check out the section on balancing your list. For your activities, they'll see all the ones you list; but, in terms of making a strong first impression, it'd probably be best to put your most impressive first. They should start making decisions in February. If you check your CUNYFirst account, they'll keep you updated on the status of your application. Good luck!😀

    I wish I had watched this earlier.... awww I have 3.92 out of the 4.0 GPA scale and hold a Computer Network and Security AOS degree. (achieved President's List 4 times in a row) I am planning to transfer to 4-year college but before that, I'd like to take some classes to get more credits for a cheaper price per credit in one of CUNY schools, QCC in Queens. Do you think if it's okay to go as a non-degree student to QCC or do you think I should just pursue transferring to 4-year college right away? I am from a low-income family under the poverty line, also an independent student who is working and study at the moment. I have no SAT score. Should I study for it and take it for transferring to 4-year college although I have gotten 61 college credits? I am an awful test-taker. I have not come out of my place for months ever since the pandemic broke out. I am not sure if I should go take SAT in this current situation which is quite serious. I am very concerned if 4 year colleges would reject my application if I do not have have SAT scores.

    Hi! First of all CONGRATULATIONS on all that you've already accomplished Kevin!!!! I have nothing but GREAT news for you: Your current college record speaks for you now. And it says you're a great student.. You don't need to take the SAT as a transfer student (and due to COVID no one needs it). By everything you've told me, it sounds like you're ready to transfer now. AOS degrees are usually meant to get you a job, not necessarily to transfer credits. So it would be good to contact the school and program you're interested in to see if any of your credits will transfer. And if you're from a low-income family, you should definitely fill out the FAFSA. You may be eligible for a PELL grant & fill out the TAP form as you may be eligible for NY state aid. Good luck!😀

    Hi! I'm hoping I'm understanding your question correctly.Your application isn't reviewed until it's complete. It's hard to be late without a deadline but ideally you just want to submit your supporting documents as soon as possible and keep in touch with the student help desk if there's a hold up. CUNY has rolling admissions which means there's no real deadline. They have a priority deadline of Feb 1 to start in the Fall and September for the Spring. But they keep taking students until they are full.

    Hi Jen, That would be my guess. You probably checked the box on your application that asked of you've taken any college classes. To get an official copy of your transcript, contact the registrar at the SUNY College you went to or there's probably an online form for requesting your transcript.🙂

Baruch has a number of great MBA programs. Good luck!😃

I get that you want a fresh start and you can *definitely* still have one. Your old GPA won't be carried over. You'll just get credit for approved courses with a "C" or higher without the actual grades. So if you passed those classes, sending in your old transcripts as a transfer student, will save you time and money. Good luck!🙂

    Hi Tamanna! The IELTS is considered part of your completed application. So you do need it. But the September deadline is only the priority deadline to give you your best chance at getting into your program before it's full & to give you enough time to get everything done for your visa etc. Technically, CUNY has rolling admissions, so they could look at your app Oct- Dec too. So I'd say send in your app with everything you have and then send in your TOEFL, IELTS, PTE or Duolingo scores as soon as possible. You should also contact your campus/program and check with them.

True, your GPA is below most of the 4-year schools but like I said those are averages including honors students, so you might still get in. I'd say it's definitely worth your time to apply. You also said you already started university in Nigeria, my concern would be about those credits transferring so like I said, contact the school and ask about the likelihood of those credits transferring. It seems like the process would be easiest going from H.S. as an international student than transferring as an international student.

    Hi! In general, a 4.0 is about anything from 93-100 (93-96 might be 3.8/3.9), 90-92 is 3.7, 87-89 is 3.3, 83-86 is 3.0, 80-82 is 2.7, 77-79 is 2.3, 73-76 is 2.0, 70-72 is 1.7 etc. It's helpful to know when looking at admissions profiles and seeing where you fit; but, you don't need to worry about making the conversion on her transcript. Colleges know different schools have different grading systems and are able to take that into account. Good luck to your daughter!🙂

Can you make any suggestions? Thank you so much. 🙏

  • @JourneyWithJordana

    Hi! CUNY does ask to see all your previous college transcripts. They might even give you credit for some of your classes. So I'd say you should apply as a transfer student. I'm guessing you're hesitant bc you're not sure what you should major in. True, if they gave you 2 years of credits, the pressure to declare a major would be on. But what if the major you decide on includes some of the classes you've already taken? Try spending some time taking some career assessments to see what they suggest, google careers/career paths you're interested in and see if you can even shadow or interview people with jobs that interest you. That way if they take your credits you'll be ready to dive in and declare your major. If they don't, you'll have more time to explore. But start exploring now would be my advice. Let me know how it goes🤗

CUNY also has an international transcript request form that you can print out, fill out and bring to your school so that they can send out your transcript. You can have your transcript evaluated by CUNY or use one of their recommended evaluation services. If you call that CUNY # I mentioned or email admissions@cuny.edu and tell them you're an international applicant, they can also connect you with someone who can walk you through the process.

    2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Dana, Are you sure your college wasn't accredited? Just bc it's not in the US doesn't necessarily mean it's unaccredited. If your college was outside the U.S., your credits will have to be evaluated by the CUNY college you'll go to after you're accepted or by a course-by-course evaluation by an agency before you apply (World Education Services: www.wes.org, Evaluation Service www.evaluationservice.net, Josef Silny & Associates www.jsilny.org or Transcript Research: transcriptresearch.com). If your college really is unaccredited, I found this promising quote from Lehman College, CUNY "Credit for a course at a postsecondary institution not accredited by one of the regionally accrediting bodies, whose description matches that of a similar course offered ... may be granted with departmental approval. Courses from non-accredited institutions that do not have a CUNY equivalent will not transfer." You can also schedule an appointment with an Admissions Counselor through the Admissions Office web page.

    Hi! Congratulations on getting great SAT scores!🎉 Due to COVID, CUNY isn't accepting any SAT scores for 2022, even great ones. But I'm guessing if you scored high, your transcript and GPA is probably pretty great too. That should increase your chances. Make sure you get a good TOEFL score too. You can still use your scores to apply for scholarships! And, here are 2 links for a listing of colleges that *usually* give scholarships for high SAT scores (if you want to apply to other colleges too😉).You can get anything from a small scholarship to a full scholarship, depending on the school. For example check out the University of Georgia Foundation Fellowship and Loyola University Chicago Ignatian Scholarship.

    No worries. If you took the IELTS, you can use that score. You do not need the SAT at all😃
