Transfer Credits

As a transfer student, it is extremely important to make sure prior coursework transfers properly to your degree plan at UT Austin. Check out these resources and answers to common transfer credit questions.

The Automated Transfer Equivalency System is a database of all courses offered at Texas institutions and can help students understand which courses automatically transfer into UT Austin.

This tool provides an estimate of how your credits apply to your required coursework. It can also help you plan for future classes and understand additional requirements for minors and certificates.

To petition a class for your major, minor, and/or certificate, ask your academic or program advisor.
