| transfer_credit | Transfer Credit Thresholds for Determining Level of Entry A transfer student’s placement (first-year, second-year, etc.) is determined based on a comprehensive review of application materials, including the Parsons Challenge, the portfolio, and previous college transcripts. For example, if a student receives transfer credit for a course that is generally relevant to the Parsons program to which they are admitted but is not a direct equivalent to a Parsons major requirement, then that credit may be applied toward electives without affecting the student’s entry level. Students admitted to the spring term who transfer a minimum of 12 credits, 9 of which must be program (non liberal arts) for the BFA and 6 of which must be program (non liberal arts) for the BBA, are not required to attend summer session. Sophomore Transfer: Students admitted with a minimum of 24 total transfer credits, with no fewer than 15 applicable program credits. | coursedog-pdfs-public-prod.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com | ||
| transfer_credit | Since the level of placement at Parsons is rarely dependent upon the total number of liberal arts credits that the student has previously earned, these courses are evaluated and transferred on a course-by-course basis. After matriculation, questions about receiving additional credit or about how transfer credit has been distributed may be explored through a transfer credit appeal to the Registrar. Students in a bachelor’s program also complete, or transfer credit toward, requirements for the First-Year curriculum before advancing to their major. | coursedog-pdfs-public-prod.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com | ||

Once matriculated, a student may take a maximum of 12 credits outside of The New School to transfer back to their degree pending prior approval. A maximum of 24 credits is permitted for study abroad, permitting that the student has not reached the 84 transfer credit maximum. | coursedog-pdfs-public-prod.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com | ||

| Approved Sources for Transfer Credits | transfer_credit | Approved Sources for Transfer Credits Higher Education Institutions: The New School will award transfer credit for college-level study completed at an institution of higher education recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and/or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation or comparable international agency for non U.S. institutions. Additional review and criteria for accepting transfer credits may be required in certain circumstances, as outlined below: ◦ Non-Institutionally Accredited Institutions: Transfer credits completed at a higher education institution that is not accredited by an institutional accreditor may require additional review by the academic unit responsible for delivering the corresponding curriculum at The New School. Students seeking transfer credit from non-institutionally accredited institutions should provide, at a minimum, a syllabus for each course so that course content, course objectives, learning outcomes, and faculty credentials, may be reviewed for alignment with The New School requirements. Additional documentation may be requested. ◦ Non-U.S. Institutions: Courses completed at non-U.S. institutions must be certified by their respective country’s Ministry of Education or equivalent. All applicants must submit an official transcript and an official translation if the transcript is not in English. Applicants who attended postsecondary institutions outside of the United States may have their transcript(s) evaluated by World Education Services (WES) or by another member of the National Association of Credit Evaluation Services (NACES). A course-by-course evaluation may be prepared for each transcript. The evaluation should examine and equate all course work on a "course-by-course" basis and include grading equivalents to U.S. colleges. ◦ College Credits Completed in Secondary (High) School: Students who have earned college credit while enrolled in high school may transfer these credits to The New School and apply them to their degree requirements. Courses must be comparable to New School offerings and either taken at an accredited institution or completed at a high school under the oversight of an accredited institution. All college coursework completed while the incoming student was a high school student must be recorded on an official college transcript and must carry a minimum grade of “C.” Military Credits: The New School will award credit for military education based on the guidelines presented by the American Council on Education (ACE). Students must present a military transcript – AARTS (Army), SMART (Navy and Marine), CCAF (Air Force) or Joint Services Transcripts (JST) – credits will be awarded by the Registrar’s Office. Military coursework may be equated to equivalent New School courses, but in most cases students will be awarded general, non-liberal arts credit that may be applied to graduation requirements. Students should consult the appropriate department chairperson should they wish to apply military credits toward major and/or minor requirements. Credit by Examination, Advanced Standing, and Prior Learning Assessment: Students may earn undergraduate transfer credit by examination, advanced standing, or through prior learning assessment according to the following criteria: ◦ AP Examination: Exams with minimum scores of 4 will be considered for undergraduate transfer credit. For some subjects, higher scores may be required, as determined by each college. Four credits will be awarded for each exam that meets the criteria for transfer. ◦ IB Diploma: Higher Level (HL) courses with grades 5, 6, or 7 may be awarded 8 undergraduate transfer credits per exam. ◦ Cambridge Exams: A Level exams for which a student earns a C or higher may be awarded 8 undergraduate transfer credits. ◦ French Baccalaureate: French Baccalaureate subjects for which a student earns a score of 13 or higher may be awarded 8 undergraduate transfer credits. For subjects with a score of 10-12, a student may receive 4 undergraduate transfer credits. ◦ College Level Examination Program (CLEP): Undergraduate transfer credit will be awarded to incoming students based on the CLEP Exam results. Credit is awarded in accordance with the American Council on Education (ACE) recommended guidelines. Students enrolled in Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts are not eligible to receive transfer credit for CLEP examinations. ◦ Prior Learning Assessment: Students admitted to the Bachelor’s Program for Adult and Transfer Students (BPATS) may be awarded transfer credit for learning in non-course, non-credit, or continuing education if evaluated through The New School’s Prior Learning Assessment process. 116 / 220 | 193654-undated-newschool.edu | coursedog-pdfs-public-prod.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com |
