Seeking advice on transferring credits from Tulsa Community College to OU

I'm attending Tulsa Community College and want to transfer to the University of Oklahoma. Does anyone know how credits transfer between these schools or have tips to maximize the credits that can be transferred?

It's great that you're already thinking about the transfer credit process since it's a crucial step in facilitating a smooth transition between the two universities. The University of Oklahoma (OU) and Tulsa Community College (TCC) have a transfer equivalency database that you can use to check how your TCC classes will translate into OU classes.

Here are some steps you can follow:

1. Go to OU's transfer credit website (you can find this by doing a quick internet search for "University of Oklahoma transfer credits").

2. Once there, look for their ‘Transfer Credit Equivalency Database'. This tool lets you fill in the courses you took at TCC and see how they equate to OU courses.

It's important to understand that only classes with a grade of C or better will be accepted for transfer. Also, not every course offered at TCC may transfer over to OU.

Here are some tips to maximize your transfer credits:

1. Consistently maintain a grade of C or better in your TCC courses.

2. Plan your TCC course schedule strategically, by opting for general education classes that are likely to transfer over as required courses at OU.

3. Regularly consult with your TCC academic advisor about your intention to transfer to OU, so they can guide you through course selections that are more likely to be accepted by OU.

4. You might want to set up a meeting with an OU transfer admissions counselor to discuss your plans and seek advice on maximizing your transfer credits.

Remember, it's a process that requires diligent planning and coordination, but with the right guidance and approach, it will certainly pay off!
