Are You Transferring from a Community College? NYU's CCTOP Program May Be for You!

The Silver School of Social Work participates in NYU’s Community College Transfer Program (CCTOP), enabling qualified community college students to transfer into our undergraduate Bachelor of Science social work program.

You are eligible to transfer to NYU through the Community College Transfer Opportunity Program if you:
• Are currently attending one of the participating community colleges (above), and have been there for one full-time year (30 credits) immediately prior to enrolling at NYU
• Have a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher at the community college
• Have at least 48 transferable credits. While you must have at least 48 credits in order to qualify for the CCTOP scholarship, our articulation agreements allow you to transfer as many as 72 credits from your community college to a related program of study.
• Intend to study full time in our Bachelor of Science program
• Are U.S. citizen or permanent resident

The $20,000 Community College Transfer Opportunity Program Scholarship

NYU Scholarship packages for CCTOP students range from $8,000-$22,500 a year. Students who transfer to NYU’s Silver School through the Community College Transfer Opportunity Program are considered for scholarships:
• The CCTOP Scholarship
• The Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship
In order to be considered for the $8,000 merit-based CCTOP Scholarship, you must be nominated by a transfer counselor or faculty member at a participating community college. Nomination forms are available in your community college’s transfer office or your counselor can fill out the CCTOP Nomination form online. You may also request a nomination form by calling 212 998 5139. NYU offers CCTOP Scholarships to approximately 150 new transfer students every year.
