2 + 2 Program

Syracuse University and Onondaga Community College are pleased to offer a 2 + 2 Program. Your first step in charting a seamless path to a bachelor's degree is to choose from the list of currently articulated programs (above). In order to pursue a degree in one of these programs, you must complete your Onondaga Community College degree with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher, as required by the individual SU school or college. If your GPA does not meet the 2 + 2 Program criteria, we welcome your application to Syracuse University as a general transfer student. If you are applying to Syracuse University under the auspices of this agreement, please review the various steps:

• Complete a letter of intent at the time you decide to participate in the 2 + 2 Program.

• Complete the 2 + 2 Program Supplemental Application one semester prior to your desired admission to Syracuse University.  You may apply for entrance to the 2 + 2 Program when you submit your application to admission to Onondaga Community College, or at any time during your first year of study at Onondaga Community College. For the fall term, the 2 + 2 Program Supplemental Application is encouraged be on file by February 1st, and for the spring semester, by October 1st.
