An integral component of all TCU degrees is the liberal arts and sciences core, that group of general degree requirements expected of every student. TCU's core consists of classes distributed among major areas. Within these areas you have a wide choice of courses; thus, you may fulfill most Core requirements with courses transferred. It is required that you complete the core before you graduate, not before you transfer. All courses are individually assessed for application to the TCU Core Curriculum. See your college counselor, TCU Admissions, or TCU academic departments for transfer questions.

The equivalent courses found on this worksheet are from the Texas Common Course number equivalency guide. Although most academic course work taken will transfer, these particular classes will fulfill TCU Core requirements. Course equivalency is subject to change.

Transfer students must complete at TCU a minimum of two upper-division courses with a "Writing Emphasis" designation, one course with a "Cultural Awareness" designation, one course with a "Global Awareness" designation, and one course with a "Citizenship and Social Values" designation.

Courses may transfer as TCU Core, elective or, as determined by academic deans, major field requirements. For more information about the TCU Core Curriculum, refer to the current Undergraduate Studies Catalog.
