About Dowling College

Dowling offered undergraduate and graduate study in areas such as business, education, aviation, and the liberal arts. It was especially known for its aviation-related programs and for serving many commuter and transfer students from the region.

Transfer credit policy

How Transfer Credits Work at Dowling College

For CLEP and transfer-credit purposes, Dowling should be treated as a closed institution rather than an active receiving school. Students seeking to use prior credit from Dowling typically need to work with the institution that now holds their records or with a new college to determine transferability. Any CLEP or transfer-credit decisions would depend on the policies of the receiving institution.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on Dowling College's current policies. Not every alternative credit source is automatically accepted, so verify eligibility before completing a course or exam.

Approved credits may count toward general education, major requirements, electives, or other degree requirements depending on the evaluation. Dowling College transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.

Transfer tip: Check your transfer credit evaluation and compare accepted credits with your Dowling College degree requirements before planning additional coursework.
