When can you transfer business credits to Baruch College?

I'm thinking about transferring to Baruch College for their business program. Can someone explain if they accept credit transfers for business courses? I'm trying to figure out if I'll need to retake any classes.

Baruch College, part of the City University of New York (CUNY), will generally accept credits from regionally accredited institutions, including those for business courses. The specific acceptance and application of those credits towards your intended program will depend on factors such as the content of the course, its level, and your earned grades.

Transfer students typically have their transcripts evaluated by the admissions office as part of the transfer process. To provide some context, here's their general guideline: you need to have earned a grade of 'C' or better in the course, though some programs or courses may require a higher grade for the credit to transfer. Also, courses that closely parallel the curriculum at Baruch are more likely to be recognized.

While there isn't a publicly available equivalency database for Baruch, you can inquire directly with the Baruch admissions office or the Registrar. They will be the most equipped to provide accurate information regarding the possibility of transferring your business course credits. It will be beneficial if you keep copies of your past course syllabi as this can help in determining the equivalence of your courses at Baruch.

Do keep in mind that although a course may transfer, it may not necessarily satisfy specific requirements for the business degree. Therefore, it's also a good idea to consult with an academic advisor once you're accepted to map out your academic plan.
