Transfer Students
Up to Admissions/Registration

To apply to UHD as a transfer student, you must have previously earned 15 or more college-level credit hours.

UHD has worked with area community colleges to develop degree articulation agreements. Students planning to transfer to UH-Downtown are encouraged to direct their questions about the transferability of their courses to their community college counselor or to the UHD Office of Admissions and Records, 713-221-8522. In addition, UHD has prepared Course Equivalencies to help you determine how many of your courses will transfer.

The State of Texas has developed a set of Common Core Requirements (look in Catalog) to ensure transferability of core courses among institutions in the state. This guarantees that a course taken at any public college or university that is identified as a state core course will automatically satisfy the same core requirement at UHD.

Official evaluation of transfer credit is done once you are admitted to the university. If your evaluation is not done prior to registration, you should bring copies of your transfer transcripts to your advising session. If you do not have copies, you may obtain copies from the Office of Admissions and Records.
