Texas Common Course Number
System (TCCNS)
The Texas Common Course Numbering
System (TCCNS) aids students in the
transfer of general academic courses
between Texas public colleges and
universities throughout the state.
Course recommendations in this
transfer guide are expressed in
TCCNS

Applying Transfer Hours to a
Four-year Degree
▪ The Transfer Evaluation Office in
the Office of the Registrar at Texas
Tech determines which courses taken
at another institution may be accepted for credit.
▪ The academic associate dean of the
Texas Tech college in which a
student enrolls has authority for
determining which courses will be
applied toward the specific degree
program chosen.
▪ Students must earn a grade of C or
better for all courses fulfilling
requirements in majors, minors, or
specialization's.
▪ A maximum of 66 semester credit
hours from two-year institutions
may be applied toward the
baccalaureate degree at four-year
institutions. Although, all credit
hours presented on the sending
institution's transcripts will be evaluated and equivalent college level
courses posted to the student's academic record.
