Transfer Credit

  • If you are a prospective student from a local community college such as NCTC, CCCCD, TCC, or DCCCD, please consult our transfer guides to find out what courses you can take at your community college that will apply toward UNT degree requirements.
  • Upon admission to UNT, the University will send you a list of all the credit you have transferred.
  • After you are admitted, you will be required to attend orientation. Please visit the Office of New Student and Mentoring Programs to register for an orientation.
  • You will meet with an advisor at orientation for a preliminary evaluation of your transfer credits and how they will apply to your degree program at UNT.
  • During your first semester at UNT, we strongly recommend that you meet with a faculty advisor for a degree audit.The audit will be the official university document that outlines how all of your credits apply to your degree program.
  • It is important to note that not all credit that transfers to UNT will apply to your degree program, but many courses will. If you have any questions about a particular course, please meet with your advisor.
  • All new students are strongly encouraged to complete all College of Information core requirements before taking major-related courses.
  • If you choose to attend UNT concurrently with another institution such as a community college, always meet with your advisor before registering for courses at other institutions to make sure the credits will apply toward your degree requirements.
  • In order to graduate from UNT, you must meet the residency requirement. This requirement states that you must complete at least 25% of the required coursework for your degree in residence at UNT. Please talk to an advisor if you think this rule will affect you.
