The Texas Common Course Numbering System is a voluntary, co-operative effort among Texas community colleges and universities to facilitate
transfer of freshman and sophomore level general academic coursework. TCCNS provides a shared, uniform set of course designations for students
and their advisors to use in determining both course equivalency and degree applicability of transfer credit on a statewide basis. When
students transfer between two participating TCCNS institutions, a course taken at the sending institution transfers as the course carrying the
same TCCNS designation at the receiving institution.
To date, 110 institutions of higher learning in Texas participate in the TCCNS project.
