The Community College in the High School Program (CCHSP) gives qualified high school juniors and seniors the opportunity to take college courses for credit in their  own high schools during the regular school day. CCHSP reduces the cost of a college education and shortens the time needed to acquire a degree. For more information, contact your high school guidance counselor or CCHSP at (845) 341-4760 or (845) 772-1229. 

To assure its students enjoy a smooth transition to and from the College, and to establish a foundation for academic achievement by its students, SUNY Orange is continually seeking to refine its current articulation agreements while also pursuing new agreements with colleges and universities across the country.

Graduates of SUNY Orange are covered by the State University of New York (SUNY) System Transfer and Articulation Policy that states: “Graduates of two-year colleges within the State University of New York, when accepted with junior status within parallel programs at SUNY baccalaureate campuses, are to be granted full transfer credit for general education courses already taken and are not to be required to repeat successfully completed courses with similar curricular content.” 

Comprehensive transfer and articulation agreements have also been established with other reputable colleges and universities.

In some instances the A.A. and A.S. degree have been determined to fulfill all general education requirements, as well as A.A.S. degrees that will transfer in full. 

The following listing summarizes these agreements; the specific details of each agreement should be verified by the student with an advisor or counselor before finalizing any SUNY Orange course selections.
