I have found that it is very hard to tell which classes with transfer to different universities. When i was going to transfer to a different university, they were going to accept 15 more credits than i was told by a website that i was given by my college councler. Is there any accurate way of figuring this out?

Unfortunately, most institutions haven't caught on to instant answers via the Internet. You actually need to get a person on the phone from the other school and speak to the transfer section of the admissions office and ask for a list of compatible courses.
You'll also need to get lots of copies of transcripts to mail or FAX them (rarely can you just e-mail the thing).

Most of the time you can get a pretty good idea from the internet, if your state has what Texas has which is a website that you can compare any school in TX with and what it counts as and where. That site is tccns.org. Before I transferred, I emailed a few people in the dept. of my major to ask about a few questionable classes, a lot of times advisors can count a class for another credit, but you just don't know until you ask/get there.

I'm afraid that there may not be any other accurate way of finding this out without just speaking to someone from each college.
I'm not sure where you are going to school, but I go to a public university in Kentucky, and they have actually set up a website where I can see what will transfer to/from other KY public schools. So, if you are staying instate at public universities, maybe there is a similar website out there for you.

That is true. It is difficult to tell which credits will transfer from school to school. The only way you can be sure of how many credits you will receive is by talking to the register at the school, who will then talk to the head of the different fields. It varies from school to school but that is pretty much the just of it. It is also important to make sure they have a catalog for your previous college to see how they compare to your current school. Oh yeah, last thing remember that credits transfer, not grades. So by transferring you pretty much have a clean slate.

that's easy incorrect. A single HNC is nicely worth a twelve months of HE on its very own, so approximately 30 credit. seems to me that to procure no better than a single a point or Scottish greater's nicely worth of credit for an HNC. Which credit assessment service did you utilize? that's nicely worth notably better than 8 credit. Your 4 HNC/HND awards nicely surpass a US friends degree. i could pass so a approaches as to declare that a solid HND in a technical subject is approximately comparable to 3 years of HE interior the U. S.. do no longer settle for this, in spite of you do. that may not precise. I advise you attempt WES.

only way is to talk directly to the school. and even then there's no way of knowing. the school may not grant you all the credits they originally said they would.
this is the main reason why many people opt out of transfering.
you're lucky they're giving you more credits that you imagined.
