Transfer Tip -- Know how your credits transfer
The state of Texas has the Texas Common Course Numbering System (TCCNS). That means that similar courses taught at public colleges and universities in Texas during the freshman and sophomore years are identified with common numbers. The common numbers are not used at each public college or university campus, but most colleges identify the common numbers in their catalogs. If you don’t know what your major will be these are often the best courses for transfer students.
See a Collin academic advisor, who can help you make the correct selections for your desired program and/or major. Course credits transfer in different ways depending on the course. Some courses have a direct equivalent and will transfer as a specific course.
For instance, at Collin ENGL 1301 transfers to UNT as ENGL 1310. Some courses transfer but do not have an exact equivalent. Courses that do not have an exact equivalent may transfer by title; as elective credit, non-advanced (ELNA) or ENBLOC, where the receiving college or university department official determines if the course will fit into your degree plan.
Equivalency guides (available online at http://transferu.ccccd.edu and at Academic Advising) show a course-by-course listing of how Collin courses transfer to various colleges and universities.
