“Will my classes count?” is one of the biggest questions transfer students have. Here’s how to find out.
Start by completing your TESU application and sending your official transcripts. Our Office of the Registrar will complete an academic evaluation, called your My Progress Report. Once it’s ready, you’ll talk with an academic advisor about which major makes the most of the credits you already have.
Not sure which major to pick? You can ask TESU to recommend one on your application, and you can switch majors after your evaluation if there’s a better fit.
Bonus: Some community colleges have articulation agreements with TESU, which can make transferring your credits even smoother. Ask your advisor if your school is one of them.

How long until you have your bachelor’s degree? It depends on how many credits you bring and how many courses you take each term.
If you transfer in 60 credits, you could finish in about two years. Community college students can transfer up to 90 credits, which could put graduation about a year away. Want to move even faster? Our accelerated 4-week courses can help you get there sooner.
