SUMMARY

Students seeking transfer credit for differential equations should consider enrolling in "Differential Equations and Linear Algebra" to meet degree requirements. However, it is advisable to confirm with the prospective school regarding credit acceptance for either course. Many institutions typically separate these subjects, suggesting that taking them as distinct classes may be beneficial. A foundational understanding from the combined course can enhance comprehension in the advanced "Differential Equations" class, particularly for physics majors.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic calculus concepts
  • Familiarity with linear algebra principles
  • Knowledge of differential equations fundamentals
  • Awareness of transfer credit policies
NEXT STEPS
  • Research transfer credit policies at your prospective school
  • Explore the curriculum of "Differential Equations and Linear Algebra" courses
  • Investigate advanced "Differential Equations" courses tailored for physics majors
  • Review study materials for both linear algebra and differential equations
USEFUL FOR

Students planning to transfer schools, academic advisors, and anyone navigating course selection for mathematics or engineering degrees.

In my school according to my degree I require to take
"Differential Equations and Linear Algebra" class but, there is another class called "Differential Equations". I am planning to transfer the next year to another school but, I don´t know which class of these two to take in order to get credit in another school.

Ask the other school.

Usually what I've seen, though, is that Linear Algebra and Diff EQ's are separate classes, so my guess is take them separately if you can.
 
I would agree to Poop-Loops's opinion to ask the new school.
For my class, I had to take "Differential Equations and Linear Algebra" class when I was a freshman. This subject which is main subject for every student taught me in general idea. Then I enroll in "Differential Equation" class which was in advanced detail for physics-major student.
