Transfer Transparency and Student Support

Transfer Liaison

Grayson College provides a Transfer Liaison to help students plan their transfer to a four-year college or university. This dedicated contact can answer questions, provide guidance, and support you throughout the transfer process. In accordance with Texas Senate Bill 3039, each institution designates a Transfer Liaison to assist students with transfer-related needs.  

Transferring from Grayson College to a four year college or university is a popular path to a bachelor's degree. Build a solid academic foundation and save on the cost of college before you transfer by earning college credits at GC.

Grayson College offers a university transfer/core curriculum and choice of Pathways, many designed specifically for students who want to transfer and apply GC credits toward a bachelor's degree.

Transfer Credit Disputes

The following procedures shall be followed by public institutions of higher education in the resolution of credit transfer disputes involving lower-division courses:

  1. If an institution of higher education does not accept course credit earned by a student at another regionally accredited public institution recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, the receiving institution shall give written notice to the student and to the sending institution that transfer of the course credit is denied.
  2. The two institutions and the student shall attempt to resolve the transfer of the course credit per Board rules and/or guidelines which may require the student to provide supporting documentation such as course descriptions, detailed course syllabi, and instructor credentials from the time of enrollment.
  3. If the transfer dispute is not resolved to the satisfaction of the student or the sending institution within 45 days after the date the student received written notice of denial, the institution whose credit is denied for transfer shall notify the Commissioner of the denial.

The Texas Commissioner of Higher Education or the Commissioner’s designee shall make the final determination about the dispute concerning the transfer of course credit and give written notice of the determination to the involved student and institutions.

Transfer Credit Data and Public Reporting

In accordance with THECB implementation timelines for SB 3039, certain required transfer credit data elements are currently in development as institutions align reporting systems, definitions, and data validation processes. Grayson College will publish all required metrics, including course acceptance and applicability rates, upon receipt of finalized guidance and validated institutional data.
