Our commitment to you is to provide the information you need to make informed decisions about attending ENMU. We understand “one size does not fit all” when you transfer to a new school because your goals are based on where you are in life and what you need from your educational experience. We are here to give you answers about registration, advising, degree planning, financial aid, tutoring, and other concerns you may have. Our Transfer Center is here to help you make a smooth transition to ENMU. Call 866.817.5333, and we will guide you through the admission process.

HOW CREDITS TRANSFER The Transfer Evaluation System (TES) is intended as a guide for our prospective transfer students. Students can see how credits from previous institutions will transfer to Eastern New Mexico University. Schools and courses are added to the list on a regular basis, particularly from those schools which have provided a large number of transfer students to ENMU in the past. Submission of official transcripts of all completed coursework is necessary before a final determination can be made about transfer credit. If a class is listed from a current or former institution, it is not necessarily a guarantee the school is currently offering the course or plans to offer the course in the future. The TES list can be viewed at enmu.edu/TES.
