Transfer Credits
Veterans Bene ts
The New York Film Academy welcomes students who wish to transfer from their current institution to enroll in our programs, and will work with you through the process.
To maintain the integrity of its programs, the Film Academy only accepts transfer credits in a student’s major area or discipline from NYFA’s other branch campuses. The Academy does accept transfer credits for liberal arts and science courses toward AFA, BA, BFA degree programs, but will not accept more than 48 units of liberal arts and science credits from other schools.
It is the general policy of the New York Film Academy not to accept transfer credits in studio arts from other academic institutions.
The Of ce of the Registrar receives transfer requests. Decisions regarding the award of credit will rest with the associate dean for academic affairs. If credit is awarded, the length and/or requirements of the program may be adjusted. Please contact the Of ce of the Registrar for more information on transfer requests.
