Transferring from one ABET cert school to another

Typically once a student has been offered admission the college will review their transcript and tell them what credits will be accepted toward the major and/or the degree. He probably won’t lose the whole year- but if possible he should postpone withdrawing from UNC-C and committing to Lamar until after his transcript has been reviewed & and he knows how many / which credits will transfer.

ABET only certifies the program (what topics are covered, and at what depth), not the overall degree. Each university sets its own requirements for graduation, both for gen eds and for the major. A college can require coursework beyond the ABET requirements, as well as whatever gen eds they want to set.

Good luck
