Transfer to UTSA

As part of a shared commitment to student success, the Alamo Colleges District and the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) have multiple partnerships to make transferring as seamless as possible.

The opportunities listed below make up a collaborative student support system, saving students money and reducing the time it takes to complete a bachelor’s degree.

TAGs

Students who want to transfer to UTSA can make sure the courses they take at the Alamo Colleges will seamlessly transfer by following a Transfer Advising Guide (TAG).

These guides create a clear path that ensures all classes transfer and count toward the student’s four-year degree program at UTSA.
