After admission to Baruch College, students receive a Transfer Credit Evaluation Report which provides an accounting of how transfer credits will meet Pathways and other degree requirements.

For New Transfer students who have been evaluated and attended transfer orientation:

• If you have concerns about how completed courses have been evaluated for transfer credit, please complete the Transfer Inquiry Form. The Transfer Center in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions will review the inquiry form and respond within three business days.
• Students seeking to appeal for substitutions to or exemptions from any Pathways General Education requirement must file a request with the Pathways Appeal Committee. 

Transfer Credit Appeals Process

Appeals must be filed in accordance with the following procedures:

1. Write up a brief statement outlining the reasons for your appeal (limit to one page) and gather the required documentation – a catalog course description and a detailed syllabus for the course you have taken.
2. Submit your materials as attachments to the Pathways Appeal Committee using the Pathways Appeal Form.
3. Within five business days, you should expect confirmation via email that your appeal submission has been received. If you do not receive the confirmation in this time period, please contact the campus Pathways Appeal Officer at pathways.credit.appeal@baruch.cuny.edu.
4. The appeal committee meets regularly during the fall and spring semesters; the committee does not meet during the winter or summer sessions. Requests for additional information and notification of official results will be sent via email to your Baruch address.
5. If you wish to appeal a negative determination, you may appeal that decision to the CUNY University Provost/ Office of Academic Affairs.
6. If the CUNY appeal is found to merit a change in course designation, the College Transfer Appeal Officer will ensure that the change is made to the student record. CUNY decisions regarding appeals for a reevaluation of transfer credit are final.
