Transfer Course (SHATRNS) page

The purpose of this page is to capture and maintain information relating to transfer work.

Information about each transfer institution and attendance period is captured using a two-position short hand notation to identify each entry. The attendance periods entered must pertain to a specific student level (undergraduate, graduate, etc.). If a student had taken both graduate and undergraduate course work at the same institution, and you wished to capture this information, it would be necessary to identify two attendance periods: one for the undergraduate work and one for the graduate work. Optionally, the user may define multiple attendance periods relating to the same level if the need arises. Untranslated entries may be entered from the transcript which have no effect on the transfer GPA. In addition, institutional equivalent entries are captured in a separate window.

These entries have no effect on the student's transfer GPA until the user updates the field telling the system to include the course in the GPA. Optionally, the institutional equivalent information which has been manually entered as a result of the review of the transcript may be associated with the untranslated entries which were posted earlier. Entering a zero in the detail untranslated course sequence number indicates that no untranslated entries have been entered for the associated equivalent courses. The page permits equivalent courses to be associated to untranslated entries on a one-to-one, one-to-many, or a many-to-one basis. Additionally, a course may be applied to a degree for which the student has applied.

The student must have been added to the system through the General Person Identification (SPAIDEN) page.
