Community college credits that transfer to UNT

I'm thinking about attending a community college first, then transferring to the University of North Texas. Can someone share how I can know which credits will transfer? I want to make sure I'm on the right path.

Understanding which credits will transfer is key to a smooth transition from a community college to a four-year institution, such as the University of North Texas (UNT). The process can vary from school to school, but there are several steps you can take to get the information you need at UNT.

First, check out the UNT Transfer Guide, which is available online on their website. This guide provides valuable information on how to navigate the transfer process and can help you figure out which of your community college credits will transfer to UNT. Just keep in mind that this resource should only serve as a guide and the final say on credit transfer will be determined by the admissions office.

Second, take advantage of UNT's Transfer Articulation Agreements. UNT has agreements with various community colleges that define how credits will transfer between the two institutions. If your community college has an agreement with UNT, this can make the transfer process a bit smoother and more predictable.

Lastly, it may be beneficial to discuss your plans with both your community college counselor and a UNT transfer admissions counselor. They can provide essential insights into not just the transfer process, but also, help you understand how to get the most out of your community college experience in preparation for your time at UNT.

Remember, the sooner you begin planning for the transfer, the better. It's never too early to start thinking about which courses to take that will fulfill UNT's requirements while also completing your community college program. Best of luck!
