Notes/Comments

TAMUCT offers upper-level courses (3xxx-5xxx labeled courses), all lower-level courses (1xxx-2xxx labeled courses) will need to be completed at ACC. A minimum of 120 semester credit hours is required for all baccalaureate degrees. Pathways may exceed 120 semester credit hours as some courses necessary for the associate degree are transferable but not applicable to the baccalaureate degree. For help with pathway planning, please speak with an academic advisor or enrollment specialist. This pathway is intended for planning and visualization purposes and is subject to change.

  1. All firsttime Austin Community College (ACC) students with fewer than 12 SCH of successful college credit must take the EDUC 1300 or HUMA 1301 topic course Great Questions Seminar in their first semester at ACC. All other students may select either EDUC 1300, HUMA 1301 topic course Great Questions Seminar, SPCH 1311, or SPCH 1315. See an advisor or a full-time faculty member in Economics for more information.
  2. The AA does not fulfill all the lower-level courses required for the undergraduate degree. Students will need to complete these remaining lower-level courses at ACC. Please discuss the consortium agreement procedure with a TAMUCT financial aid advisor.
  3. Any-level electives may be taken at TAMUCT or at ACC. Please consult with an academic advisor prior to selecting any-level electives.
