<p>Hello</p>
<p>I'm a student at HCC and plan to transfer to Mays Business School next year.</p>
<p>Before last year, I was aiming for nursing school, so I've taken many nursing-related courses like a&p and microbiology.</p>
<p>I also retook some of the courses because I wanted better grades, and now I'm worried because I have too many credit hours.</p>
<p>I heard that Mays has maximum credit hour limit , but I will have more than 90 credit hours after taking some business-related courses.</p>
<p>So I was wondering if those courses that I took for nursing would be counted when I apply.</p>
<p>and for the retaken courses, do the better grades replace the bad grades for the gpa? </p>
<p>Please Help! I'm really nervous and worried.</p>
<p>You’re going to need a very good GPA to get into Mays as a transfer student.</p>
<p>The hours limit refers to students that do an internal transfer (within A&M, changing majors). Don’t think there is one for transfer students, but I’d email a Mays advisor to ask all these questions as well…</p>
<p>As for retaking a course, it does not replace the original, both grades are on the transcript and both are used to calculate.</p>
<p>Mays is truly one of the hardest A&M programs to transfer in to, ([Undergraduate</a> Program Enrollment Management | Mays Business School | Texas A&M University](<a href=“http://mays.tamu.edu/upo/enrollment-management/]Undergraduate”>http://mays.tamu.edu/upo/enrollment-management/)) at that link, you see that in 2011-12 they accepted 75 transfer students total…</p>
<p>I’d encourage you to still apply, but also apply to business programs at smaller schools like Texas State and U of H.</p>
<p>I’m also gonna apply to U of H.</p>
<p>Thank u very much! It really helped :)</p>
<p>heather002…did you get accepted?</p>
