Transferring To SJC Brooklyn

We encourage you to take advantage of our Online Transfer Evaluation System, where you can easily access preliminary information about how your courses will transfer to SJC Brooklyn.

If you do not see your institution or a particular class — don’t worry! The Office of Admissions regularly evaluates new courses, so please feel free to email us your courses. We will be happy to evaluate them and add the new equivalencies to our Online Transfer Evaluation System.

SJC Brooklyn will accept up to 64 credits from a regionally accredited two-year school, and up to 90 credits from a regionally accredited four-year school. SJC will accept comparable courses in which a grade of C- or higher was earned. However, some courses may require a higher grade be achieved in order to satisfy certain major requirements. To fulfill the SJC residency requirement, all students must complete a minimum of 30 credits* at St. Joseph’s College to satisfy the College’s residency requirement.

Students who transfer to one of SJC’s professional studies programs may be eligible to receive additional transfer credit and may also be considered for prior experiential learning credit.

*Certain majors may require a minimum of 32 credits be completed at St. Joseph’s College. 

If you have enrolled in college courses at another institution, after graduating from high school, then you are considered a transfer student. Candidates applying for transfer admission should complete the SJC Online Application or the Common Application and submit the following:

• A non-refundable $25 application fee.
• Official transcripts from all regionally accredited institutions attended after high school graduation.
• If you have completed less than 24 college credits at a regionally accredited college or university or graduated high school less than one year ago, you must also submit your final high school transcript.
