Student Announce October 23, 2025

Any students who are planning to graduate this December from either an associate (or certificate) program who wish to continue their education at Alfred State College in a corresponding baccalaureate (or associate) degree program need to complete a SUNY Joint Admissions/Intent to Enroll Form.  This would also include any graduates who wish to pursue the Technology Management or Interdisciplinary Studies baccalaureate degree!

These forms should be completed and returned to the Admissions Office as soon as possible.  Students must submit their completed SUNY Joint Admissions/Intent to Enroll Forms to the Admissions Office by the November 7 in order to sign-up for spring classes when course registration opens on November 17.  As a reminder, there is no application fee since students will be either associate degree (or certificate) recipients continuing in the corresponding program. 

The updated SUNY Joint Admissions/Intent to Enroll form is available at https://www.alfredstate.edu/stay-for-four.

Lots 20 and 20a will be closed on Saturday October 25th for football tailgating.  Please move your vehicle from these lots on Friday evening.  The parking lots will reopen after the game.

The Student Success Center will be hosting the Midterm Recovery Workshop on Thursday, October 23rd at 5pm in the Student Development Center, Room 109. If you are looking at your midterm grades and want to improve them, start with this workshop.  Strategies and options will be discussed as to the best course of action to achieve your goals this semester.
