Transfer Pathways

We are so glad you are exploring transferring to SMU! Each of the Transfer Pathways outline a recommended academic plan for a smooth transition and timely completion of a SMU degree. There are two versions for you to use based on where your credits were taken.

If you are transferring from a Texas college or university, the Texas Transfer Pathways outline a plan maximizing the use of TCCNS courses to complete requirements in the major and SMU’s Common Curriculum.

The Out-of-State Transfer Pathways have examples of courses you can look for at your institution to complete requirements in the major and SMU’s Common Curriculum. We recommend that you use our Transfer Equivalency Guide tool, alongside the Transfer Pathway, to search for transferable course options.

If you have any questions about how your credits align with the Transfer Pathway, please email transfer@smu.edu or contact your Transfer Admission Counselor!

If the major you are interested in is not listed, please check back periodically as we are publishing additional Transfer Pathways as they are completed. You many use the 2023-2024 version by clicking on the archive link at the bottom of the page.
