All on-campus events are cancelled until April 13, so the buses on 4/4/20 have also been cancelled. 

Start Now is a unique program for students graduating from a high school in one of the five boroughs of New York City. It allows for a seamless transition, with a guarantee that credits will transfer. Students choose between SUNY Jefferson Community College (JCC) and SUNY Onondaga Community College (OCC), where they spend at least their first year, before transferring to SUNY Oswego. Program participation is by invitation.

Full-time transfer students entering with a cumulative 3.30 GPA or higher and 24 or more college credits are eligible for a $1,000 Transfer Achievement Scholarship. Recipients who maintain a 3.00 or higher GPA and full-time enrollment at SUNY Oswego, may renew this scholarship for up to two years consecutive to the initial award for a maximum total of $3,000. The scholarship will not exceed $500 per semester regardless of the maximum total. To be eligible, simply complete an application for admission; no scholarship forms are required.

Due to COVID-19 precautions, SUNY Oswego has moved to a distance learning format for the Spring 2020 semester. We are no longer offering Laker For A Day. If you'd still like to connect with a student virtually, please email Laker4aday@oswego.edu to learn more. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you, and we appreciate your patience during this time.

SUNY Oswego partners with many colleges to ensure that Transfer students have a successful and seamless transition to Oswego. We have collaborated with schools to build Dual Enrollment Agreements, General Agreements, and specific Program to Program agreements. We also comply with SUNY's Seamless Transfer Policy allowing SUNY Transfer students benefits in admissions, transfer credit, common foundation, transfer paths, and articulation agreements.

SUNY Oswego has suspended all on campus events until further notice in response to COVID-19. We apologize for the inconvenience!
