Reverse Transfer Transcripts
Pursuant to Texas Education Code, Section 61.833, when a transfer student completes at least 66 semester credit hours, and 30 of these semester credit hours were taken at a Texas community college, a current UT Tyler transcript is to be sent to the relevant community college; this requires the student’s authorization. Upon receipt of such a ‘reverse transfer’ transcript, the community college will review the record and determine if the student qualifies to receive an associate degree.
Each student has the option to grant their authorization for ‘reverse transfer’ when completing their application for admission. If a student who qualifies under TEC 61.833 has not granted such authorization at the time they are identified, UT Tyler will forward a link allowing them to do so.
