Transferring to Cornell College Cornell recognizes the valuable contribution to the academic and social life of the college made by students who have transferred from other institutions. Cornell offers nearly 50 majors and preparatory programs, as well as over 20 minors.
Students pursue the bachelor of arts, bachelor of music, and bachelor of philosophy degrees.
A fourth degree, the bachelor of special studies, enables students to develop their own academic program. No more than 64 semester or 96 quarter hours of credit from a junior college may be transferred. Scholarships and Financial Assistance Cornell maintains a generous financial assistance program to provide an affordable education for all admitted students. Transfer students are eligible for academic, visual arts, music, and theater scholarships. Transfer students must submit a completed application for admission by March 1 to be considered for academic scholarships.
