If you do not yet meet the above requirements, please apply in a future semester.
NOTE: Hunter's NFS-BS is not an RD/DPD program which, at Hunter, is at a Master's level. If you are seeking an undergraduate RD program within CUNY, see Brooklyn, Lehman and Queens Colleges.

NFS APPLICATION DATES:
Opens Sept 30-Dec 20

FOR THIS APPLICATION:
You will need unofficial ELECTRONIC TRANSCRIPTS FROM EACH COLLEGE ATTENDED, both to answer GPA questions & to upload to this application. Plan to upload all unofficial transcripts even if transfer courses show in your current College's record (Hunter or other school current record.) CUNY students upload in one PDF your CF electronic unofficial transcript(s).

* You may complete the application at once or in stages. If in stages, click SAVE & save the email showing your form link. Once your application is final, click Submit after which you cannot return to the form.
* Please be accurate when entering information, especially the GPAs & course info. UPH cannot review incomplete applications.

NFS APPLICATION REVIEW:
Application review will begin about a month after the open date and we will email the decision. For those completing prereqs in the current semester, we may consider conditional admissions pending prerequisite completion & if a strong GPA is already proven. Conditional admittance will be retracted for those who do not meet NFS course & GPA requirements---if doing poorly, inform us, and have an alternative major to declare.
