Hi, I went to community college for 3 semesters, then transferred to a 4-year university for my last 5 semesters. When I transferred, my community college course names were changed to match the 4-year university's course names. When I put these into my AMCAS applications, do I put the course name that appears on the community college transcript or the 4-year's transcript?

Thank you!! 🙂

You need to add your community college as one of your colleges attended, and which semesters you attended
Then enter your courses exactly as they are named on the community college transcript.
It’s nice your 4-year college gave you credit towards your degree, but don’t enter those courses a second time with their “new” names.
Send both transcripts to AMCAS
