I'm considering transferring to Brooklyn College for their business program. Can someone explain the GPA requirements for transfer students? Any insights from current or former students who have gone through the process would be super helpful!
Brooklyn College does have a policy for transfer students interested in their business program, and it's important to be aware of this when planning your transfer.
The School of Business at Brooklyn College typically requires a minimum GPA of 2.0 from transfer students for consideration. However, having a 2.0 does not guarantee acceptance since admission into the program is competitive. The actual GPA of admitted students tends to be much higher.
Many students note that maintaining a GPA well above this minimum has put them in a stronger position during the transfer process. It's also worth noting that certain business majors within the School of Business have additional academic requirements.
In addition to maintaining a strong GPA, you'll also want to ensure you're meeting pre-requisite course requirements where applicable and presenting a strong overall academic portfolio.
It would be beneficial to reach out to the admissions office or academic advisors at Brooklyn College directly to learn more about any additional requirements specific to your situation. They can provide the most current and accurate information to assist with the transfer process.
