Various Ways of Transferring Credit to OTC

Applicants for admission, who attended other colleges or universities, are responsible for submitting their official transcripts from each institution directly to the admission office.

OTC will consider credit from institutions accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, in addition to accepting all credit from regionally accredited institutions.

How to view your Evaluated Transfer Credit.

Transcript Evaluation Status:

We evaluate transcripts in the order in which they are received. Once received, transcripts fall into one of two categories:

  • Simple Evaluations (faster): All courses on the transcript have been reviewed before and already have course equivalencies.
  • Full Evaluations (slower): Transcript includes new or unfamiliar courses that require additional review and new equivalency decisions.

Currently Evaluating:

  • Simple Evaluations – Transcripts received July 28, 2025
  • Full Evaluations – Transcripts received June 12, 2025

Please refer to your email confirmation for a transcript status update showing the date we received your transcript.

Once credit has been evaluated it may be viewed in myOTC on the Transfer Evaluation tab and in the unofficial transcript.  During the months of June – August each year, we do not evaluate transfer credit for non-degree seeking, visiting students.  Those transcripts will be evaluated as time allows after the fall semester has begun.
