Will Math 1314 College Algebra Transfer?

I've completed a Math 1314 College Algebra course. I'm moving to a new college soon, and I'm concerned about how this class might transfer. Does anyone know how this transfer typically works?

When it comes to transferring credits, there isn't always a one-size-fits-all answer because policies can vary greatly from one institution to another. It is highly dependent on the receiving institution's policies, course equivalencies, and the requirements for your intended major.

In many cases, a Math 1314 College Algebra course is a pretty standard course and is often required for a variety of degree programs, so it should have a high likelihood of transferring over. Moreover, college algebra is generally considered a lower-division course, which usually transfers without issues.

However, the best way to know for sure would be to reach out directly to the registrar or the admissions office at the new college you're moving to. They can give you more concrete information about their credit transfer policies. Additionally, you can request a transcript review to determine how many of your credits will transfer.

Another key point to consider is the grade you received in the course. Many institutions have a minimum grade requirement - usually a C or higher - to accept the credit course.

Don't forget you may also need to provide them with a course description or syllabus of your Math 1314 class so they can compare it to their coursework.

Finally, if your new institution has an online tool to check course equivalencies, you could use this to get a preliminary idea of how your course might transfer. But it's always best to get confirmation directly from the school.
