I'm considering transferring from Kilgore College to Texas A&M. Does anyone know how the course transfers work between these institutions? I'm keen on making sure my credits align properly. Tips or insights would be super helpful!
When transferring from one college to another, it's crucial to ensure that the credits from your previous institution will transfer and properly count toward your degree at the new institution.
Texas A&M University has a helpful transfer course catalog available online, which identifies how course credits from various schools, including Kilgore College, will transfer over. You should compare the list of courses you've taken at Kilgore against this catalog to see how, and if, they will be accepted at Texas A&M.
If you're still in doubt after referring to the catalog, I would recommend reaching out to the admissions office or a counselor at Texas A&M— they can provide detailed guidance tailored to your situation. They can help you map out which courses you have already satisfied and which ones you still need to take based on your intended major.
Remember, every university has a limit on how many credit hours you can transfer, and some major-related courses might need approval from the respective department at Texas A&M.
As a valuable tip, make sure you maintain good grades at Kilgore because, in addition to ensuring your credits transfer, Texas A&M will consider your GPA in the transfer admission process.
Overall, the transfer process involves careful planning and specific attention to detail, but with the right guidance and resources, it can be a smooth process. Good luck on your transfer journey!
