Transfer Equivalencies

All transfer course equivalencies are reviewed by academic departments on a regular basis and are subject to modification. Courses not included on a below chart or from a college not listed below are still eligible to transfer, provided they meet all transfer policies.  In these cases, courses will be reviewed individually for appropriate Cortland credit.  Courses listed with XX course numbers, e.g. MAT 2XX, will transfer as elective credit.  

Current SUNY Cortland undergraduate students who wish to register at another college must follow the Permission to Transfer Credit Process and obtain approval for courses from their academic advisor and the Transfer Credit Coordinator in advance of registration at the other college.  

Students seeking to complete general education requirements at another SUNY college may search the approved SUNY GE by campus database to choose appropriate courses.
