I'm planning to transfer from LIU to Brooklyn College and I've taken Math 100. Does anyone know if this class will transfer over? How can I check if it's equivalent to a course at Brooklyn College?
To determine whether your Math 100 course from LIU will transfer to Brooklyn College, you'll need to refer to the transfer equivalency database or guide provided by Brooklyn College. Many colleges provide a tool that allows students to see how credits from other institutions transfer over.
If such a tool is not readily available online, here's an alternative approach. Contact the admissions or registrar's office at Brooklyn College directly. Provide them with the course name, number, and a brief description or syllabus from LIU. They should be able to guide you through the process and provide a determination on your credit transfer.
Beyond that, it's also worthwhile to understand Brooklyn College's transfer policy in general. They may have regulations about the maximum number of credits that can be transferred, or specific requirements about what grades or level of courses are transferable.
Remember, even if a course does not transfer directly, it could be counted as an elective or general education credit. However, if Math 100 is a course necessary for your intended major, you'll certainly want to confirm its transferability.
These steps can help you avoid landing in a situation where you need to retake a course or are missing credits upon transferring.
