Transfer Credit Evaluation Form

You are not required to complete the transfer credit process (this form).
However, your unofficial transcripts can be used to establish prerequisite eligibility for courses. Please attach them to your course registration form when you register.

Any student who has attended a regionally-accredited post-secondary institution and/or earned college level credits through high school/college programs, CLEP, Advanced Placement exams and/or military experience, and is planning to complete a program at Tunxis, might be eligible to transfer credits into his or her degree program at Tunxis. Transferring credits into Tunxis is not mandatory.

  • Apply to and become accepted at Tunxis Community College and enroll in a Degree/Certificate Program. If you are a Non Degree student and wish to become program enrolled, you must submit proof of high school completion and immunization documentation and submit a Change of Program Form (PDF).
  • Submit this Transfer Credit Evaluation Request Form.
  • Have OFFICIAL transcripts sent directly from the institutions listed above to the Tunxis Admissions Office, 271 Scott Swamp Road, Farmington, CT, 06032.
    Official transcripts must be received via eTranscript or in sealed envelopes and cannot be opened by the student. Student copies of transcripts are not acceptable for transfer purposes. If courses were completed at Institution A and then the credit(s) were transferred to Institution B, an official transcript from Institution A must be received for credit evaluation.
