Notes/Comments

TAMUCT offers upper-level courses (those labeled 3XXX-5XXX), while all lower-level courses (those labeled 1XXX-2XXX) should 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 certain courses required 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. The AAT does not fulfill all the lower-level courses required for the undergraduate degree. Students will need to complete the remaining lower-level courses at ACC. Please discuss the consortium agreement procedure with a TAMUCT financial aid advisor.
  2. Excludes Nutrition.
  3. Please note the following courses require a grade of 'C' or better: 12 credit hours of English, College Algebra, and approved Educational Psychology course and completion of 15 credit hours in the certification subject area.
