Application Deadline

There is no deadline for applications - we offer rolling admissions. However, we do recommend that you apply as early as possible, and at least ten weeks before the start of semester, because the visa application process may delay your admission.

Transfer Applicants

If you have been a student at an accredited university in your home country, you can transfer to a Manhattan College degree. Transfer applications must be accompanied by certified (English) course descriptions, documented hours of instruction, and an official transcript.
