How can I transfer credits from other institutions?
Transferring credits to Houston Community College is a structured process designed to ensure that students receive the maximum benefit from their previous coursework. To initiate the transfer of credits from other institutions, students first need to submit an official transcript from each college or university they attended. This documentation serves as a record of completed courses and grades.
Once the transcripts are submitted, they will be evaluated by an admissions officer or academic advisor at HCC. This evaluation will determine which credits are eligible for transfer and how they align with the degree requirements at HCC. It is important for students to note that only courses that received a grade of C or higher are generally considered for transfer.
Students should also be aware that the transfer process may differ depending on the program of study they are pursuing. It can be beneficial for students to refer to the specific department or program guidelines regarding credit transfer policies. For more detailed information or specific procedures, students can explore the current web page on credit transfer at Houston Community College, which may provide additional insights and necessary forms.
