Make an appointment with the academic advisor of the major, once accepted to UTSA, in order to clarify department, college and university policies and

procedures, to review course sequencing and to help with identifying resources for academic success. A current listing of academic advising centers can be

found at www.utsa.edu/advise/advisors.html.

Refer to the official source of information on specific courses within the UTSA requirements for this degree plan from the UTSA Undergraduate Catalog or

visit the web site at www.utsa.edu.

Using this Transfer Advising Guide with UTSA

This Transfer Advising Guide represents UTSA’s degree plan and is subject to change at the university’s discretion. It is intended for advising purposes only so stu-

dents know exactly which courses they can take at any of the colleges in the Alamo Colleges District and have the courses count towards degree requirements when

they transfer to UTSA. It is highly recommended that students meet with their assigned academic advisor to review all graduation and transfer requirements listed

in the Transfer Advising Guide.

The ultimate goal is to provide students with accurate information for transfer pathways while minimizing loss of credits in transfer. Students are encouraged to

review UTSA’s requirements frequently.

Course numbers in italics are UTSA’s course numbers.

This Transfer Advising Guide is based upon The University of Texas at San Antonio’s 2022-2024 catalog and is subject to change.

The Alamo Colleges District Advising

Students are encouraged to consult with an academic advisor about courses and other educational concerns if they plan to pursue a two-year degree program,

transfer to another college or university, or simply take a few selected courses. In addition to course and degree requirements, policies and procedures are subject

to change; stay informed by meeting with an academic advisor regularly.

Many students who plan to transfer to a university are advised to fulfill the lower-division requirements for the university. With appropriate planning, your Alamo

Colleges District team can help make the transfer experience a seamless process. It is the responsibility of all students to ensure that they take courses at the Alamo

Colleges District that will be accepted by the senior institutions they wish to attend.
