your state determines what is defined as "core" for your degree. You will need to talk to a school advisor, but core courses should transfer within state schools. Electives may or may not.
BTW: A course that "transfers" does not automatically mean it counts towards your degree program. It may tranfer as an elective. You know the numbers that identify your courses? Each one has a meaning (level of student, whether or not pre-reqs are required, which college (English, Nursing, etc). That is how the advisor needs your transcript to tell you for sure whether or not the courses that transfer will actually count towards your degree. Good luck!
