Policies & Procedures
-
Transfer Center
- You can check how your courses will transfer to Texas State before you apply. The university’s Transfer Course Equivalency System shows how commonly transferred classes match Texas State credit, using the same database used for official transcripts.
Transfer rules can change, and your official evaluation is only finalized once you’re admitted.
- Admitted or currently enrolled students can use the Transfer Course Equivalency System (login required) to view how their officially submitted transcripts have been evaluated and how each course transfers to Texas State. A downloadable Evaluated Course Work Glossary explains the terms and abbreviations used in those evaluations.
If anything in your evaluation seems unclear, you’re encouraged to reach out to the TXST Transfer Center or an admissions counselor for help.
