Welcome to the Blinn TEAM Website

The Blinn TEAM (“Transfer Enrollment at A&M”) Program is a collaborative, coenrollment partnership between a major university (Texas A&M) and a community college ( Blinn College ).  Each year since 2001 this unique initiative has allowed the admission of additional hundreds of qualified students into the Texas A&M freshman class than would have otherwise been possible due to enrollment management limitations.    

Participating students are initially admitted to Texas A&M University on a part-time basis, and may earn full admission by several methods.  Blinn TEAM students are enrolled in one academic course at Texas A&M each semester, and the remainder of their courses at the Bryan Campus of Blinn College .  Students who complete 45 Blinn credit hours and 15 A&M credit hours within a two-year period, while maintaining a 3.0 grade point ratio at each school, are automatically admitted to Texas A&M.  TEAM students who wish to transition to A&M sooner may compete for transfer admission when they meet transfer eligibility.  Finally, students who do not transition by the aforementioned methods may fully matriculate via the university’s readmission process after their two year program has concluded.

 Blinn TEAM students benefit from enrollment at both institutions; students enjoy the university experience afforded by Texas A&M (such as residence hall life, sports events, and a huge range of student activities), while enjoying the smaller classroom environments and costs of Blinn College .  Academic advisors, faculty, and staff at both schools facilitate TEAM student successes.  No other program in Texas connects a junior and senior institution in exactly this way.
