Will my Herkimer College credits transfer?
Under Open SUNY, your Herkimer College credits will transfer to another SUNY school if the earned grade is a C or better, but how they are applied is up to the individual college or university. For schools outside the SUNY system, it is up to them if they accept the credits. We encourage students to contact the schools they are interested in attending and ask them their transfer policy.
