<p>I'm a freshman at a SUNY school and I realize that I want to switch to an education major. I'm a bio major right now. However, my school doesn't offer it and I'm looking to transfer to CUNY Queens College since I know they are well known for their education major. The deadline for spring transfers is Sept 15 and I also need to get my high school to send in my transcript in a sealed envelope. I won't be able to get in my transcript sent in time since NYC high schools start on Sept 9. That's a problem for me since I called into CUNY today and they said that all documents must be received by the 15th. Please help. what should I do? & Also, I could change my major if I indicate it on the application, right? Thanks!</p>
<p>Are you certain CUNY said that things must be received by the 15th and not just postmarked? </p>
<p>Even though classes start on the 9th, teachers and administrators are often there earlier to get ready for the year, give them a call and see. If they will give you your transcript in a sealed envelope, you could then send it in a priority mail envelope and it should get to CUNY in 2-3 days.</p>
<p>I’d assume CUNY will evaluate your transfer for the major that you indicate, but don’t know that for sure. Call them to find out for sure.</p>
