Steps to Apply
Step 1: Choose your application
Complete your application online and pay the $50 application fee, or use the SUNY Fee Waiver Form.
Submit official transcripts from every college/university attended to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.
This is necessary regardless of the number of credits earned, even if the information appears on another institution’s transcript. Failure to report all previously attended colleges on the application will cause a delay in the application process.
Do you have less than 24 transferrable college credits?
You must also submit your official high school transcripts to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. Contact your high school counselor for help.
Step 3: Review program specific requirements
Review additional requirements based on your major. Students with more than 54 transferrable college credits will be asked to indicate their major on their application.
In order for transfer credit to be applied toward Brockport degree requirements official transcripts from all original sources must be sent to Undergraduate Admissions. A final official transcript shows all college courses completed at previous institutions and includes the listing of any degrees earned. It is the student’s responsibility to request final official transcripts from each college attended.
While transfer grade point average (GPA) is used as part of the application review process for admission to the University (and specific programs that require a secondary application) your GPA will not transfer. Only earned grades completed at Brockport will affect your overall GPA.
Either Undergraduate Admissions has not received some, or all, of your transcripts or Transfer Credit Services has not yet evaluated your transcripts. If we have all, or some of your transcripts, and you
You can transfer a maximum of 64 credits from any accredited two-year college. Therefore, although you may have completed more than 64 credits at your community college, as perhaps listed on your degree audit report, don’t forget that the degree audit will only apply 64 of your credits (those most useful) toward your Brockport degree. The maximum number of transfer credits that can be applied to your Brockport degree (a combination of two-year colleges and four-year colleges/non-college sources such as AP, IB, CLEP, etc) is 90 credits.
After you’ve been accepted to SUNY Brockport, the Transfer Credit Services team will evaluate your transcripts and provide a degree audit within 2 weeks. Once have completed your transcript evaluation and your degree audit is available, you’ll receive an email notifying you that your audit is ready for you to view and how to access it.
Transfer EOP students must have been EOP/HEOP, SEEK, or College Discovery Program at their previous or current college in order to transfer to Brockport. If you are an applicant who was previously in one of these programs and looking to be considered EOP at Brockport, you must check the EOP question on the SUNY or Common Application.
