Transfer and graduate student admissions event, January 5

FAFSA workshop open to public, January 14

Mount Saint Mary College will hold a transfer student admissions event January 5 from 4 to 7 pm in Curtin Memorial Library, on the campus at 330 Powell Avenue, Newburgh, NY.

The event is for college-age transfer students, adults interested in applying previously earned college credits towards a bachelor’s degree, and adults who want to pursue a master's degree in business, education, or nursing.

Admissions counselors will provide information about the Mount’s 47 undergraduate programs preparing students for careers in health professions, business, education, social services, communication/media, and more.

Graduate admissions staff will also be available to answer questions for students wanting to pursue an advanced degree in business, education, or nursing.

Adults can earn accelerated degrees in accounting, business, nursing, history, human services, psychology, social sciences, and an interdisciplinary bachelor of arts in education, with hybrid online programs in business and nursing.

The Mount’s hybrid online program blends the best of traditional classroom instruction with the convenience of online learning. Adults can achieve a bachelor's degree in business and expedite the path to an M.B.A. Registered nurses may be interested in the Mount’s on-site and online R.N. to B.S.N. program which offers credit for nursing experience.
