How do I have my transfer transcripts evaluated?
If you are a transfer student, transfer credits are evaluated by the Office of Admissions and Records and added to the permanent record only for students who submit official transcripts. Pulaski Technical College may accept transfer work from regionally accredited institutions. The following policies apply to the granting of transfer credit:
- Official transcripts should be submitted to the Office of Admissions at the time of application.
- Official transcripts are evaluated by the Office of the Registrar based upon the Arkansas Course Transfer System (ACTS) or the decisions of appropriate faculty and staff.
- Only grades of "C" or higher are eligible for transfer credit. Credit is not granted for course work that is remedial or technical.
- Grades earned at other institutions are not posted to the student's PTC transcript and are not calculated in the student's PTC grade point. Credits earned will be reflected in hours earned and may be used for degree requirements.
- Students must complete a minimum of 15 credit hours at Pulaski Technical College to be eligible for a PTC degree or certificate.
- Students should be prepared to submit course descriptions and syllabi of transfer work if there is any question concerning the acceptance of credit toward a degree program. PTC reserves the right to revise previously granted transfer credit.
After your official transcript is received and evaluated, it will be listed in your Campus Connect account under “View Comments.”
NOTE: In order to be considered official, transcripts must be in a sealed envelope from the institution courses were taken at.

How do I submit information changes such as my address or if I change my degree?
Students should submit address and other data changes to the Office of Admissions and Records or through the PTC Demographic Information Change Form of Campus Connect. Students requesting name changes must provide copies of official documents reflecting name changes to the Student Services office.

How do I know if a class will transfer?
Pulaski Technical College offers the Associate of Arts, Associate of Arts in Teaching and Associate of Science degrees, which are designed to parallel the first two years of course work at a four-year college or university. After studying at Pulaski Tech, students can then transfer to a four-year college or university for the final two years of a baccalaureate degree. The Arkansas Course Transfer System (ACTS) contains information about the transferability of courses within Arkansas public colleges and universities. Students who plan to attend a particular college or university should consult the catalog and admissions office of that college for information concerning required and elective courses.
