Blinn is an open-enrollment institution. Most students will be accepted and eligible to register for classes once they submit all required admissions documents.*

*International students have additional admissions requirements and deadlines. If you are an international student, please visit our International Students page. 

High School Transcripts or GED Scores

Students must submit a completed, official copy of their high school transcript or GED scores as well as transcripts from any college or university previously attended.  Students who apply for admission and have completed 12 or more college credit hours can submit an official college transcript in place of their high school transcript. Emailed copies of high school transcripts will be accepted if sent directly from the high school to admissions@blinn.edu. Blinn College does not accept any emailed high school transcript sent directly from the student/parent.    

Home-school transcripts must be signed by a parent/guardian, be notarized, and include a high school graduation date. For more information about homeschooled transcripts, please contact admissions@blinn.edu.

Foreign Transcripts

New for the Spring 2025 term, all transcripts from high schools, colleges and universities from other countries must be evaluated by an approved NACES certified evaluation service and the results must be submitted directly to the Blinn College District. Unofficial copies of evaluations will not be accepted directly from the student. We will no longer accept official foreign transcripts from the student at our Enrollment Services counter or directly from school officials by email. For a list of approved evaluation companies please visit the International Student Program office website under “Foreign Transcripts Requirements” section.

Transfer Student

A student entering Texas A&M International University at the sophomore (30 to 59 hours), junior (60 to 89 hours), or senior (90 or more hours) level from a college or university is considered a transfer student. Those students who wish to transfer with less than 24 earned semester credit hours must have minimum cumulative of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale and must also satisfy the regular freshman entry requirements. Information regarding lower level course equivalents may be found in Appendix D.

To be admitted as a transfer student, an applicant must submit the following information to the Office of Admissions 

• Application for Undergraduate Admission

• Official college/university transcript(s) sent directly from each institution attended. A minimum overall grade point average of 2.00 is required. Even though a grade below “C” will be calculated into the grade point average, it may not satisfy degree requirements.

• One of the following language examinations is required for English proficiency*:

  Proficiency

  Language Proficiency Requirement	Score
  Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOELF)	Minimum score of 69 ibtTOEFL or 523 Paper-based
  International English Language Testing System (IELTS)	Minimum score of 5.5
  Pearson English Language Test (PTE Academic)	Minimum score of 47
  Duolingo English Test	Minimum score of 100

  Test scores must be sent directly from the testing service and dated within two (2) years of enrollment. The College of Education requires TOEFL IBT scores of at least 26 in each of the four areas (reading, listening, speaking, writing) of the test for admission.

  *Language proficiency exemptions are listed in the International student admission section.

Texas Education Code establishes the criteria for automatic transfer admission to Texas A&M International University. “It is the responsibility of the applicant for admission under this section to (1) express and clearly claim in the application entitlement to admission under this section; and (2) timely provide to the general academic teaching institution the documentation required by the institution to determine the student’s entitlement to admission under this section.” Section 51.8035.

NOTE: International Students must also complete the requirements listed under International Student Admission.

IMPORTANT: The State of Texas required all students to meet the Texas Success Initiative (TSI) mandates. TAMIU will use the state approved TSI Exam as a form of assessment and honor any state approved alternative assessment instruments. The University will use the TSI exemptions as stipulated by the State of Texas under the TSI plan. The TSI score is not a determinant component for admissions into A&M International. For information, contact the University College at (956) 326-2134.

Transfer Curricula and Resolution of Transfer Disputes for Lower-Level Courses: The transfer curricula shall be as prescribed by the current issue of the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board’s guide to transfer curricula and transfer of credit.

The following procedures shall be followed by public institutions of higher education in the resolution of transfer disputes involving lower-level courses:

• If an institution of higher education does not accept course credit earned by a student at another institution of higher education, that institution shall give written notice to the student and the other institution that the transfer of the course credit is denied.

• The two institutions and the student shall attempt to resolve the transfer of the course credit in accordance with the Higher Education Coordinating Board rules and/or guidelines.
