Relocating to the Brooklyn campus
You must complete the first two years at Pratt Munson before you will be able to relocate to Brooklyn. You may not relocate to Brooklyn after completing only one year at Pratt Munson. The transition to the Brooklyn campus is automatic and seamless; no application is required to relocate. Approximately 95 percent of students choose to relocate to Brooklyn. When you relocate, you will start as a junior in your program as long as you remain in the major in which you were enrolled in at Pratt Munson. You will complete your degree in two years as long as you meet all requirements for your degree. Upon graduation, your bachelor’s degree will be awarded by Pratt Institute.
