Old Westbury welcomes qualified candidates from two- and four-year colleges and
universities. The college has also developed detailed articulation agreements
with regional two-year colleges, designed to encourage and facilitate transfers
into upper division academic programs.
Our low student to faculty ratio enables students to become more involved with
the professors and enjoy a more personal atmosphere. Internship opportunities
or opportunities to work with faculty on research projects are just a few of
the reasons students transfer to Old Westbury.
Application
Admission to Old Westbury is granted for both the Fall and Spring semesters.
To apply as a transfer student you will need a grade point average of at
least 2.0. Academic programs such as those with the School of Business and Teacher
Education Department require a higher GPA*.
Transfer
candidates in good academic
standing with fewer than 24
credits must submit, in addition
to official college transcripts,
an official high school transcript
and a copy of the candidate’s
SAT/ACT scores. Transfer candidates
must demonstrate
mastery in English and Mathematics before registering for upper division
courses and must meet the college's general education requirements.
If you would like to visit the college with transcripts of all your previous
course work, an Enrollment Services Counselor can advise you with regard to
admission. To make an appointment call the Office of Enrollment Services at
(516) 876-3073 or send your email message to enroll@oldwestbury.edu.
