Articulation Agreement Between Hill College & Hardin- Simmons University Effective Fall 2017
HELLO FROM IN ABILENE, TEXAS! We are so glad you are interested in transferring to HSU! Our partnership with Hill College means that we have a direct pathway for you to further your education at Hardin-Simmons University. This transfer guide will help you determine which courses to take at the community college level that will successfully transfer into your HSU degree. For best results, we suggest that you do two things: (1) Use this transfer guide in correlation with your detailed HSU degree worksheet for your specific major. These can be found on our website at www.hsutx.edu > admission > transfer students > degree worksheets. Not all majors have the same Foundational Curriculum requirements, so we want to make sure you know exactly what your major will require before planning your class schedule. (2) Contact our Admission Counselor for Transfer Students with ANY questions about transferring courses, the HSU admission process, or scholarships we offer.
