Touro University opened in 1970. Its main New York presence is centered in New York City, with campuses and schools spread across Manhattan and nearby areas. Enrollment is large and varied, with undergraduates, graduate students, and professional students all on different tracks. That mix matters. You’ll see older students, career changers, and traditional freshmen in the same system.
Touro is known for health professions, education, business, and law. The Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine, New York Medical College, Touro Law Center, and the Lander College schools are some of its best-known units. It also has strong graduate and professional offerings tied to healthcare and public service. The university’s New York footprint gives it direct ties to hospitals, clinics, schools, and legal employers.
Touro reviews transfer credit through its registrar and the receiving school or department, so the final decision isn’t automatic. Community college coursework often transfers cleanly when it matches a course or gen-ed area, and military credit is also commonly reviewed. NCCRS-recommended courses can be considered, usually as elective or requirement-substitute credit when the content lines up. Credit caps and major-specific rules can vary by school within Touro, especially in professional programs.
Browse all UPI Study courses or talk to an advisor to plan which courses fit your Touro University degree plan.
Touro’s transfer admissions are handled by school, so deadlines can vary between undergraduate and professional programs. Many New York undergraduate programs admit for fall and spring, while some graduate and professional schools use different cycles. A competitive transfer application usually shows solid college grades, completed prerequisites, and a clear match between your prior credits and Touro’s degree plan. If you’re coming from a community college, an articulation agreement can make the process smoother.
Unlimited access to all 70+ ACE & NCCRS-recommended courses. Study on your schedule — no deadlines, no campus required.
All plans include instant access to 70+ college-level courses. No class schedules, no textbook fees.

Step 1 — What type of student are you?Real experiences from UPI Study students who transferred credits toward their degree.
I checked Touro University first, before I paid for anything. Once I saw they accepted NCCRS credit, I knew the plan made sense. My son finished his courses over the summer and transferred them in without any drama.
I worked full-time and studied at night, mostly on weekends. UPI Study fit my schedule when my university didn’t. That flexibility was the only reason I could finish on time.
I earned my US college credits from India while staying home. The credits transferred to my university, and that saved me a lot of time. It was straightforward once I had the transcript ready.
I’m a paramedic, so my schedule changes fast. UPI Study let me keep moving on my degree between shifts. I needed something that didn’t care if I was working nights.
These UPI Study courses have the highest transfer acceptance rates among TU-accepted ACE & NCCRS-recommended credits — ideal for fulfilling general education requirements at Touro University.
Answers to what students actually search for before they enroll.
Yes, Touro University does review NCCRS-recommended credit. The registrar and the receiving school look at the course content, level, and how well it matches the degree plan. ACE and NCCRS credits are often considered alongside CLEP and military training, but the final call is made by Touro. For example, a UPI Study psychology course might be accepted as an elective at one school within Touro, while another program could require it to fit a specific gen-ed area.
The limit depends on the school within Touro University. Many undergraduate programs accept a substantial amount of transfer credit, but upper-level major requirements usually have residency rules and capstone requirements. External credits are often applied to general education or electives first, then reviewed for major equivalency if the department allows it. Professional schools can be much stricter, so the exact cap matters a lot there.
Credits from accredited community colleges are commonly reviewed course by course. Touro works with transfer pathways and articulation agreements in some cases, especially for students coming from New York community colleges. If your course matches a Touro requirement, it’s more likely to post as direct credit; if not, it may still count as an elective. UPI Study credits are evaluated the same way in spirit, but they arrive as NCCRS-recommended noncollege credit, so they’re usually easier to place into electives or general education buckets.
First, finish the UPI Study course and request your transcript. Then send it to the Touro University registrar or the admissions office handling your program. After that, the registrar or department reviews the course for equivalency and posts the credit if it fits. The review can take a few weeks, and some students ask for a pre-evaluation before enrolling in more courses.
Touro University undergraduate tuition is roughly $1,150 per credit. If you replace 30 credits with UPI Study courses, that’s about $34,500 in tuition you’re not paying to Touro. UPI Study’s $499 annual plan is far below that. Even after transcript fees, the savings are still large if those credits apply to gen-ed or elective requirements.
Touro is best known for health sciences, education, law, and business across its New York schools. The College of Osteopathic Medicine, New York Medical College, and Touro Law Center are especially well known. Transfer credits help most when they clear general education requirements, because that leaves more room for major courses, labs, and clinical or fieldwork requirements. That matters a lot in the professional schools, where the schedule gets tight fast.
The GPA requirement depends on the school and program. Many undergraduate transfer applicants are expected to show at least a 2.0 college GPA, while stronger programs may want more. Competitive applicants usually have a higher GPA and fewer weak grades in core subjects. UPI Study course grades don’t replace your college GPA, but they can strengthen your record if the school reviews them as part of preparation or placement.
Deadlines vary by school, but many undergraduate transfer programs at Touro accept students for fall and spring entry. Some programs use rolling review, while others set priority deadlines well before the semester starts. Check the exact school page if you’re applying to law, medicine, or another professional program. Finishing UPI Study courses early gives the registrar time to review them before your file is complete.
Most undergraduate programs at Touro University admit students for fall and spring. Some graduate and professional schools have their own calendars, and a few use more limited intake windows. Transfer applicants usually follow the same semester structure as first-year students, but the school you’re applying to decides the timing.
Deadlines depend on the specific school within Touro. Many undergraduate programs use fall and spring deadlines, with priority dates set earlier for transfer review. Professional schools can have fixed deadlines months before classes start. Touro does use rolling review in some programs, so applying early is still the smart move.
Yes, Touro is generally transfer-friendly, especially for students coming from New York community colleges and other accredited schools. A large share of its students are nontraditional, which makes transfer credit part of the normal process. Articulation agreements and school-specific transfer pathways also help in some programs. The key is matching your prior coursework to the right Touro school.
Many transfer applicants don’t need SAT or ACT scores, especially if they’ve completed enough college coursework. Freshman requirements can differ by school, and some programs are test-optional. Touro’s professional schools usually focus more on college grades and prerequisites than on standardized tests. Always check the exact school, because the rules aren’t the same across the university.
Yes, Touro offers orientation for new students, and transfer students usually have their own version or track. It’s typically held before classes start and covers registration, advising, and campus systems. Some programs also include online orientation modules, which helps if you’re balancing work or commuting.
Touro offers merit-based and need-based aid, and some schools have their own scholarship funds. Transfer students can qualify for institutional aid in many cases, though the amount depends on the program and FAFSA results. Health professions and graduate schools may also have separate awards or grants. It’s worth checking each school’s financial aid page, because the scholarship list changes by campus and degree level.
Most students finish a single course in 2–4 weeks studying a few hours per day. There are no deadlines. You can go faster if you already know the material, or spread it out over a couple of months if you're working full-time. The self-paced format means your schedule decides the timeline, not a semester calendar.
ACE (American Council on Education) and NCCRS (National College Credit Recommendation Service) are organizations that evaluate non-traditional coursework and recommend it for college credit. They're the same bodies that evaluate military training and CLEP exams. Over 2,100 US universities have policies to accept credits from ACE/NCCRS-evaluated sources. The recommendation doesn't automatically mean a specific university will take every course — each registrar evaluates independently — but it's the standard credential for this type of transfer.
Once you pass a course, you can request an official transcript through the UPI Study portal. Transcripts are processed within a few business days and sent directly to your university's registrar, or provided as a PDF for you to submit yourself. The transcript lists completed courses, credit hours, grades, and the ACE/NCCRS recommendation reference.
