FAQ:

I took a course at another college which should fulfill a major requirement, why isn't it showing on my transcripts?
  • Major requirements that were fulfilled at other institutions will not show on your TMU transcripts.
  • Your major advisor will track your major requirements. When you start your graduation contract as a Junior, your advisor will omit requirements that you have fulfilled through your transfer work. The graduation contract will only include requirements that you still have to fulfill to graduate.
  • If there are any questions about the fulfillment of your major requirements, please contact your major advisor. The Registrar's Office does not advise on major requirements.

I took a Gen Ed at another college, why is it not showing on my transcripts
  • Do we have your transcripts from the other institution? If so, do the transcripts show all of your grades? Sometimes, we will be sent transcripts before grades have been posted for a given semester. If there is not grade, the course will not be evaluated for transfer credit. You can check with the Registrar's Office to see what we have on file for you.
  • Is the course approved for transfer? Please review the instructions above to see college-specific lists that show exactly which courses will transfer.

How long does it take for transfer work to show on my transcripts? Once we receive the transcripts, it may take 1-3 business days to appear on your transcripts depending on the work load and time of year. However, as soon as you are awarded credit, your unofficial transcripts in are updated in real-time. Visit the Student Portal and click on "View & Print My Unofficial Transcript" to see your transcripts.

I took "xyz course" at another college, why isn't this course listed on my transcripts?  Only Gen Eds that have been awarded, and courses taken at TMU will appear on your TMU transcripts. General Electives will only appear as a number of transferred units. These units will count towards the minimum 122 unit requirement.
