What transfer credit options are there from BMCC?

I'm at BMCC and considering transferring to a four-year school in the future. How does BMCC handle transfers and are there any recommended colleges that accept a lot of credits from here?

Many community colleges, including Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC), have articulation agreements with four-year institutions. An articulation agreement outlines which courses from the two-year college are accepted for credit at a four-year institution. This simplifies the process of transferring credits.

The CUNY system has a very strong relationship with BMCC. If you're considering transferring within the state, your credits should transfer smoothly to schools like Brooklyn College, Baruch College, Hunter College, or any of the other four-year CUNY schools.

Outside of the CUNY system, BMCC also has partnerships with institutions like Pace University, Mercy College, New York University, and St. John's University, amongst others.

Lastly, even if a school doesn’t have an agreement with BMCC, that doesn’t mean they won’t accept your credits. Many institutions have policies that allow students to transfer credits from regionally accredited institutions like BMCC. However, the number of credits accepted can vary based on the institution and the specific course. You'll want to check with any prospective schools to understand their transfer credit policy and remember to reach out to advisors at both your current college and prospective colleges early in the process to plan your coursework strategically.
