I'm looking at North Carolina A&T for a possible transfer after community college. Is there an easy way to figure out which of my completed courses might transfer over without issues?
Absolutely! The process might differ by institution, but one of the most common ways is to use transfer equivalency databases or tools.
North Carolina A&T State University provides an online tool called TES (Transfer Evaluation System), which allows you to see how courses from your current institution will transfer. You can search for your community college and then for the specific courses you have taken to see their equivalent at NCAT. If your course is listed, that's a good indication that it will transfer.
However, keep in mind that the ultimate decision on the acceptance of transferable credits rests with NCAT. It's always a good idea to reach out to the admissions office or an academic advisor at NCAT to discuss your specific situation and verify the information found in TES.
Additionally, remember that meeting the minimum requirements does not always guarantee admission, particularly for impacted majors that may have a higher threshold or additional prerequisites. It's best to stay in contact with admissions officials at NCAT throughout the process.
