SUNY officials say students transferring to or from any state college campus will now be able to transfer all general education toward their major courses and requirements.

SUNY, which runs schools in Canton and Potsdam, now guarantees transfer of its 30 general education requirements as well as discipline-specific courses in the major they are calling “Transfer Paths,” resulting in true junior status for students who complete two years of study, according to SUNY Chancellor Nancy Zimpher’s office. There are 52 paths in place for the start of the 2015-16 academic year, ranging from aerospace engineering to nursing to theater, a statement from Zimpher’s office says.

"When you start college at SUNY, we are going to do all we can to help you finish your degree on time and with less debt. Ensuring seamless transfer is one of the most fundamental ways we deliver on that promise," Zimpher said.
