  • Do I need a certain GPA to transfer?

    Students must be in good academic standing at the end of the 2023-24 academic year to transition to an equivalent program at Maria College.  As part of the Teach-Out Agreement, you will complete the remaining requirements of your College of St. Rose degree at Maria College.

  • How quickly are admission decisions made?

    Admissions decisions are typically rendered within a week of receiving your application. In certain situations, students wishing to enroll in the Maria College nursing program may experience longer admission decision times.

  • What Is a Teach-Out Agreement?

    When an institution of higher education has decided to cease operations, it is required to provide its accrediting body, such as the Middle States Commission on Higher Education that accredited The College of St. Rose, with a plan for how it will aid students in completing their degrees. These plans include agreements with other colleges and universities called “teach-out agreements.”

    All colleges participating in teach-out agreements are dedicated to assisting St. Rose students to continue their studies in a seamless manner.
