percentage of 34-44% of students who are accepted for enrollment, with an average of 67 new transfer students annually. Prospective students may readily find information regarding Keuka’s transfer policies and guidelines on the College website which provides current articulation agreements and credit transfer guidelines http://admissions.keuka.edu/transfers/credit-transferguides/. As described on the College website, the maximum number of transferable credits is 90 credits from four-year colleges http://admissions.keuka.edu/transfers/requirements/. The College currently has articulation agreements with six community colleges in New York State: Cayuga, Corning, Finger Lakes, Genesee, Monroe, and Onondaga Community Colleges. Keuka is also in the process of establishing articulation agreements with four additional community colleges: Broome, Jamestown, Jefferson, and Mohawk Valley Community Colleges. Throughout the admissions and enrollment process, prospective transfer students consult with an admissions counselor who works with the Registrar’s office for a preliminary transfer credit evaluation. Upon enrollment, students receive an official transfer credit evaluation and are informed of their progress toward completion of their degree program. Courses are transferred as consistently as possible based on parameters determined by the relevant academic departments and the policies on transfer courses which are described in the credit transfer guides. Accelerated Studies for Adults Program (ASAP) Students in the undergraduate Accelerated Studies for Adults Program (ASAP) are regarded as transfer students, typically bringing in 60 credits or more from an accredited institution. Prospective students are recruited to study at 20 locations throughout New York State, such as Batavia, Rochester, Canandaigua, Auburn, Syracuse, Utica, Watertown, Cortland, Binghamton, and Corning (Appendix 5.6 ASAP Locations Map – ASAP Viewbook). These programs are designed to meet the access needs of working adults who desire to further their education in an effort to progress in their chosen professional occupations, or in preparation for new occupations. Each prospective applicant to ASAP is given individual consideration and works with an admissions counselor regarding program requirements and application details. Professional student advisors work closely with prospective students and the admissions counselors to review coursework take at previous institutions to make sure applicants met the requirements. Student advisors complete an enrollment interview with prospective students via email or telephone to discuss program expectations, student readiness, work experience, education/career goals, and to answer students’ questions. Following the interview, final evaluation of transfer credit is conducted by the Registrar’s office. ASAP directly supports the College’s mission of “experiential learning,” by requiring that students bring a foundation of work experience into the classroom. Admissions counselors Bachelor’s level programs run on a year-round basis, with new cohorts beginning in August, January, and May each year. Cohort programs begin provided minimum enrollment has been met – the ideal cohort size being 8 to 15 students. Information on the undergraduate Accelerated Studies for Adults Program can be found on the College website at http://academics.keuka.edu/asap/content/undergrad_admissions. The admissions requirements for ASAP are outlined below: Completion of 60 or more transferable credits from an accredited institution. Some applicants may need additional credits to meet prerequisite, liberal arts, or graduation requirements. Keuka College offers several completion options to earn these credits. Applicants must demonstrate an appropriate combination of maturity, experience and motivation. Page 6 of 39 Chapter 5: Admissions, Retention & Support
