Do Tulsa Community College credits transfer to Oklahoma State University?

I'm attending TCC and considering a transfer to OSU. Which classes will transfer over? Any tips on ensuring a smooth credit transfer between these schools?

Absolutely, transferring credit between TCC and OSU is a common path and the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education has established course equivalency tables to facilitate this process. Any course you take at TCC, so long as it isn't a remedial course or a specialized, highly specific program course, should be able to transfer.

In terms of ensuring a smooth credit transfer, here are some suggestions:

1. Familiarize yourself with the course equivalency tables mentioned above. These tables show you how one school's courses equate to another's, so you know if your TCC course has an equivalent at OSU. It's generally accessible online through the state regents' website. When planning your studies, try to pick courses that map directly onto courses offered at OSU for the best chances of having your credits accepted.

2. As early as possible, contact advising offices at both TCC and OSU. Let them know you're planning to transfer and they can help guide you towards the right courses. It's good to start this communication early because it helps you make sure that you're taking transfer-friendly courses.

3. Keep your grades up. Some institutions will not accept a course for transfer credit if you did not achieve a certain grade, often a C or higher.

4. After your transfer application is accepted by OSU, submit your final TCC transcript to OSU's admissions office so they can evaluate your credits.

Remember, while most general education or lower-division courses are easily transferrable, upper-division or specialty courses may not be. It's also crucial you stay in contact with academic advisers at both institutions to ensure you're on the right track. This process may vary and it's always recommended to double-check with the institutions themselves for the most precise information.
