Petitions and Student Records

Our team is here to help students, as well as faculty and staff, with records-related matters.

College-Related Petitions

Seeking to take a transfer course in the upcoming summer or count a course you already took toward a degree requirement are examples of requests called petitions. All petitions for degree requirements (except the https://ugs.utexas.edu/core-flags) are handled through the college's online petition system.

Tips for Petitions

  • Start with your academic advisor to discuss options
  • Seek permission before enrolling in a course at UT or another university
  • Understand that petitions are approved for sound academic reasons only

Please contact CNS Student Records (512) 232-9283 if you have any questions.

Petitions regarding core curriculum are handled by the TEXAS Undergraduate Studies (UGS). You can obtain more information about the petition process here.
