The College of Arts and Sciences sets no limit on the number of internal transfers who can be accepted each semester. However, candidates must have academic records that compare favorably with those of students who entered the college as freshmen. No specific grade point average guarantees admission. Each admission decision is made individually by a committee of faculty members. The committee has not set specific conditions in regard to courses completed or grades earned but considers each candidate's complete academic record, progress in meeting the college distribution and language requirements, letters of recommendation and reasons for wishing to transfer into the college.
Decisions are final.
The committee will consider late grade changes only in the event that a clerical error was made in reporting or recording the grade. Grade changes will not be considered if they are due to additional papers, projects, etc., submitted after the normal grading period for the semester. Academic Requirements You should complete 12 credits, or at least three courses, in the College of Arts and Sciences during the semester preceding transfer. Your academic record at Cornell should include mostly grades of B or better, especially in courses in Arts and Sciences. At least 100 credits of C or better must be earned for the BA degree.
