Heās currently a Finance major but looking to transfer to ECON at A&M. He has all other required courses and. 3.5 GPA. There is not an equivalent to 142/1325 at his university. We sent the available MATH course list from his school, syllabus, etc. but no luck. Itās disappointing because there wasnāt an equivalent class for him to take. Heās registered for 1325 at HCC for summer session 2 and will apply for Spring admission if heās denied for Fall.

I only know Maysā¦ @Christi1993 knows Econ well!
Ugh I wish you had jumped on here before he wasted a course. But yay for the A and he probs my wonāt have any trouble with 1325. The 2 maths are extremely important to have completed for most transfer majors.
Glad heās registered for summer 2. Thatās great and even if heās accepted without it, I suggest he still take it SS2. Does admissions know heās registered for it?
Please keep us posted

He told Admissions he would take 1325 this summer, but that was before he registered for it. His transfer audit was received on June 3rd, so heās now in the review process. Do you think we should tell Admissions heās now registered?
Canāt hurt to let them know. Keep his app in front of them.

I applied as a neuroscience major with a 4.0 GPA and 52 transferable hours. I got a request for spring grades because I was taking Gen Chem II (a required course) in the spring. I currently attend a 4 year private university. Do you think I have a chance of getting in? And is it normal not to hear back until late June?
Assuming you did decent (a or b) in that course then you shouldnāt have any trouble. Not sure why itās taking so long. When admissions took over transfer applications, itās slowed down the process. Hang tight. You can always call to follow up. Never hurts.
Keep us posted.
My son was deferred for Spring grades and has now submitted all the pre-requisite requirements. We are (im)patiently waiting and wondering if any BS Communication students had received a response?
My daughter is BA Communications and received admission last Weds (got 7 tabs then acceptance letter on Thursday). She has several friends who have also received acceptance to BS Communications that were deferred. Has your soon received his transfer audit yet?
Not that Iām aware of but will check. Do you mind me asking what your daughterās GPA is? My son has 28 hours and 3.42 GPA.
Her GPA is 4.0 with 30 hours.
Hi,
My son was deferred for spring grades and is applying to transfer into Communication BA. He has the required courses but was planning to take math 1325 in a spring mini course through blinn. His application reflected this and he was enrolled in the course. However he had to un enroll from the course because he accepted a position as a camp counselor at tbarm and didnāt have access to his computer during the course. Didnāt think it mattered bc it was not required for the major (but figured it would be a bonus to have it)
His final transcript from Colorado Christian was received 5/28 but then today he got an email stating that they were waiting on his blinn transcript to show the math course and that it was past the June 1st deadline. He replied today with an explanation but do you think this is a deal breaker? We were wondering why he hadnāt gotten an audit yetā¦. Any advice is welcome!
Thanks and congrats to all of you recently accepted!
My understanding is that if hisā initial application and transfer audit (what they used to determine deferment) had the Blinn transcript on it showing TIP for Math 1325, then he would need to provide the transcript still even if itās shows a W or that he unenrolled. Also, does AIS show red x next to Blinn Transcript on hisā portal? That would have let him know that he would need it sent to pass the transfer audit.
Hope AO can help and get it straight for you.
Thanks for replying! It only shows the blinn transcript as needed after/if granted admission. Thatās why we werenāt concernedā¦ I mean we could send a transcript but there wonāt be any completed courses listed
How many credits does he have? If 60 then the math is required (highly recommended) If less than, then he should be fine, they are just expecting the transcript so it will need to be sent.
He only has 27 hours plus ap credit. All hours came from Colorado Christian university. He doesnāt actually have any hours from blinn since he dropped the math class before it started. So should I see if I can send a blank transcript just showing no courses? It shows the blinn transcript as only needed if admitted. Is it even possible to send a transcript of no courses are taken yet?
Communications BA requires either MATH 142 or PHIL 240, which is MATH 1325 or PHIL 2303, since CCU does not have PHIL 240 equivalency, your student may have to finish MATH 1325 in order to satisfy the required courses for transfer.
No, there will be no need to supply a blank transcript. If they are showing it incomplete, he needs to let them know in writing that.
