EPCC TRANSCRIPTS TO BE SENT OUT

  All universities will require an official transcript from EPCC.

  You must go online and order as they are not taking in-person request.

  To request a transcript go to:  https://www.epcc.edu/Admissions/tr

anscripts  In the past there were no fees and no

fees were noted on the website as of date.

  The form is fillable.

  You can save and then email it to the email address provided on the form.

TRANSFERABILITY OF CREDITS

  Senate Bill 25  “The bill requires universities to develop recommended course sequences for all of

their majors, laying out which classes students should take and giving them a timeline for completing them. It also requires universities to report any non-transferrable credits to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board”

  To verify transferability, it’s recommended searching for a transfer equivalency tool. Most schools have this tool where you can input courses taken to see if they transfer. Simply search “UT Austin transfer equivalency tool”

  Verifying transferability of credits out of state is a bit tricky. You may need to redo some of the core curriculum. Search for the equivalency tool and speak to an admissions counselor for that campus.
