Credit Transfers and GPA
TCU will accept credits you have earned a C- or better from regionally-accredited institutions. Courses which do not transfer to TCU include the following:
- Courses in which a grade lower than “C-” was earned
- Courses considered to be developmental (e.g., orientation, time management, library skills) or remedial (e.g., those in English, math and reading)
- Vocational-Technical courses
