ADVANCED STANDING/TRANSFER CREDIT Transfer credit applications at New York Automotive and Diesel Institute will only be approved under specific conditions and are subject to the discretion of the Dean of Academic Affairs. Alternatively, general applied education courses will be considered for transfer only if their content closely aligns with New York Automotive and Diesel Institute current syllabi ensuring consistency in educational standards and program objectives. Generally, an applicant accepted into a degree or certificate program with prior college credit, may be granted advanced standing to a maximum of one half of the total number of the program's required credits. Credits gained by advanced standing are considered full college credits and they will not affect the student's grade point average. Advanced standing may be granted by any one or combination of the following: Transfer credit will be considered for coursework completed at accredited institutions of higher education or recognized secondary schools, with a minimum grade of 2.0. Transfer credit will be awarded only for those courses applicable to a specific degree or certificate program. The Dean of Academic Affairs will determine the equivalency of transfer credits. Applicants with past formal postsecondary training may be granted transfer credit toward the completion of the program. The Dean of Academic Affairs may grant transfer credit for coursework taken at another accredited school in which a minimum grade of 2.0 or better was earned. Transfer credit does not carry a grade and has no impact on a student’s Grade Point Average (GPA). Students must furnish official transcripts from each accredited postsecondary school previously attended to receive applicable transfer credit. Official transcripts and course descriptions, if needed, must be received by the Dean of Academic Affairs or the Registrar prior to the enrollment date in order to be evaluated for transfer credit. Additional consideration will be granted to students who transfer from a certificate program offered at NYADI.
