Questions about transcript

Graduate School
1

Hello, I am an undergraduate Junior student at UT Austin, majoring in Civil Engineering.

I have some questions about transcript. During this summer, I am taking online courses in community college. And I am wondering if the admission (graduate school) committee checks the transferred credits/transcript from the community college. Do those transferred credits show up as letter grades, or are they just considered course credit without any letter grade?

It could be wrong, but I heard somewhere that when you apply for graduate school, they check the grades of transferred credits as well. Is this true?

In general, ALL transcripts must be sent to grad schools, and the combined cumulative GPA is considered and is the number you enter on the app. (Some grad programs may ask you to compute your major app as well.)

One exception to the ‘all transcript’ rule is if you attend a study abroad course/term and your home university shows the credits on its transcript.
