Requirements for transfer students at Hunter College?

I'm planning to apply as a transfer student to Hunter College. What are the specific requirements I should be aware of for transferring, like GPA or credits? Any tips from those who've successfully transferred would be appreciated!

The requirements for transfer students to Hunter College primarily include a 2.5 minimum GPA, although they recommend having a GPA of 2.8 or above to be competitive. Hunter accepts course credits from other accredited colleges, and you'll need to have at least 24 credits to apply as a transfer student. These credits should be from courses where you've received a grade of C or better. In addition, some specific majors at Hunter may have additional requirements, so make sure to check for those requirements related to your intended major on the Hunter website.

Hunter College uses the CUNY Application for transfer students. As part of this application, you will need to submit your official transcripts from all previous institutions attended. Remember, if you're still enrolled in courses at another institution when you apply, be sure to send an updated official transcript after those grades come in.

As for tips, the most important would be to complete all the prerequisites for your intended major before transferring, as Hunter highly values students who are well-prepared to dive into their major. You'll also want to make sure your application clearly explains why you want to transfer to Hunter specifically. Showing that you have done your research about what Hunter has to offer and how it will help you achieve your academic and career goals can be impactful.

Lastly, note that application deadlines can vary depending on whether you wish to enroll in the fall or spring semester. Make sure you're aware of these deadlines so you can start preparing your application materials in advance. Good luck!
