Transfer Credit for Core Courses

If a student possesses knowledge in a core discipline, he or she may take a proficiency exam to waive or establish proficiency in that area.Students previously enrolled in another NYU division or master's program must take 60 credits after matriculation at Stern to satisfy the MBA degree requirements. Stern courses taken prior to matriculation at Stern do not count towards the MBA degree requirements.
