Transfer Tip -- Dispute resolution

Collin College works closely with colleges and universities to make the transfer process as smooth as possible. As a student, you have the right to ask for transfer dispute resolution if you believe you are entitled to more transfer credit for lower-division (freshman and sophomore) courses than you received.

Lower-division courses are listed in the Academic Course Guide Manual. Procedures for transfer dispute resolution are published in public college and university catalogs. Most transfer credit disputes can be worked out by talking to your new or previously attended college.

Start with the institution that you are transferring to and then, if your question is not settled, discuss it with the college where you earned the credit. If the dispute is not resolved after the two colleges or universities have worked together, the issue can then be referred to the Commissioner of Higher Education for a final decision.
