Residency Requirements - Transfer Work

There are specific residency requirements in regard to transfer of credits from other colleges before the completion of degrees. All students, including transfer students, electing to complete a major must complete at least one-half of the requirements for the major at Molloy University. To have a minor noted on the transcript at graduation, at least one-half of the requirements for the minor must also be completed at Molloy University.

Any exception to this will be made in writing by the Departmental Chairperson with the approval of the Provost for Academic Affairs.

Generally, the last 30 credits towards a degree must be taken at Molloy University .

For students approved to do Study Abroad courses during their last year in college, graduation review will only be done once official transcripts are received. For delays in documents, graduation may be deferred until the next available conferral date.

Only credit hours are accepted in transfer, based upon the minimum grade required. Cumulative grade point averages for new transfers to Molloy begin with the first semester of grades recorded at Molloy, and exclude transfer work GPA.
