Appendix B:
Texas Common Course Numbering System

The Texas Common Course Numbering System (TCCNS) has been designed for the purpose of aiding students in the transfer of general academic courses between colleges and universities throughout Texas. Common courses are freshman and sophomore academic credit courses that have been identified as common by institutions that are members of the common course numbering system. The system ensures that if the student takes the courses the receiving institution designates as common, then the courses will be accepted in transfer and the credit will be treated as if the courses had actually been taken on the receiving institution's campus.

The table below lists the courses Texas A&M University has identified as common and their TCCNS equivalents. Before using this table students should be sure that the institution they attend employs the TCCNS.

This table is revised quarterly in January, March, June and September. The most recent version may be obtained from the Office of Admissions and Records.

The current version of this document may be found on the Office of Admissions and Records website at www.tamu.edu/admissions/undergrad/tccns.shtml.

NOTES:
1. The sequence of calculus courses for science and engineering majors may be offered in several ways. The credit value of these courses varies among institutions; the second digit of each course number designates the semester hour credit and may be 3, 4 or 5, but the course content for the sequence is comparable among most institutions. Students are encouraged to complete the entire sequence at the same institution.

2. MATH 2315 will transfer as MATH 251 only if it requires at least 8 semester hours of calculus as a prerequisite. Otherwise, MATH 2315, accompanied by MATH 2314, will transfer as MATH 152.

* Must include a lab.
** These courses are reversed at some colleges. Contact the Office of Admissions and Records (979) 845-7387 for information.
