Transfer Students Holding the A.A. or A.S.
Degree
Students completing the A.A. (Associate in Arts) or A.S. (Associate
in Science) may transfer 66 credits toward a B.A. or B.S. degree in
St. John’s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the College of
Professional Studies, or the School of Education. Upon
admission to St. John’s University, transfer students who have been
awarded an A.A. or A.S. degree must successfully complete a minimum
additional 60 semester hours including (a) six semester hours in
Philosophy and six semester hours in Theology (unless previously
satisfied), and (b) requirements for the selected major
concentration. This amount of transfer credit will allow
students to complete their undergraduate degree at St. John’s
University in two years of full-time study.
Transfer credits applied to B.A. or B.S. degrees in the Peter J.
Tobin College of Business or the College of Pharmacy and Allied
Health Professions must have their academic record evaluated to
determine the courses applicable to a degree program in these
units.
Transfer Students Without an Associate
Degree
A student applying without an Associate degree has his/her credits
transferred to the best advantage provided they are applicable to
the degree program. In addition to fulfilling major
requirements and the Theology/Philosophy requirements, students
without an Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree may
have to complete certain University core curriculum
requirements.
