The transfer of course credit from TSTC to other Texas colleges and universities is facilitated by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) Academic Course Guide Manual and Workforce Education Course Manual. In general, students may submit an official TSTC transcript to another college or university for consideration of transfer credits. Acceptance of credits is at the discretion of the receiving institution. Contact your department chair for more information.

According to THECB regulations, the following procedures are to be followed by Texas public institutions of higher education in resolving credit transfer disputes for lower-division (freshman- and sophomore-level) courses.

1. If a Texas institution of higher education does not accept course credit earned at another Texas institution of higher education, the receiving institution gives written notice to the student and to the sending institution that transfer of the course credit is denied.
2. The two institutions and the student attempt to resolve the transfer of the course credit, in accordance with THECB rules and/or guidelines.
3. If the dispute is not resolved to the satisfaction of the student or the sending institution within 45 days after the date the student receives written notice of the denial, the institution whose credit is denied for transfer notifies the Commissioner of Higher Education of the denial.
4. The Commissioner or his/her designee makes the final decision regarding the transfer of course credit and gives written notice of the decision to the student and the institutions involved.
