Transfer Credit Equivalencies
Project Overview
The University of Toronto is pleased to announce the launch Transfer Credit Equivalencies for the University of Toronto Scarborough, the University of Toronto Mississauga, and the Faculty of Arts & Science. This platform helps undergraduate and prospective students discover how courses will transfer for degree credit at U of T. The launch includes the administrative application within OASIS and the revamped student application, Transfer Explorer. These applications will improve the way that transfer credit equivalencies data is managed and presented to staff, students and prospective students. They also offer a more modern user experience, enhanced search capabilities, and streamlined processes.
Student Application
An updated, redesigned Transfer Explorer application helps undergraduate and prospective students discover how courses will transfer for degree credit at U of T, including interdivisional, external, and international exchange credits.
Benefits:
- Provides improved search functionality with autosuggestions that focus on specific courses or subject areas.
- Increases transparency by displaying easy-to-understand, consistent data, and additional information on how to understand different credit types.
- Provides an intuitive, accessible and mobile-friendly interface.
- Allows students to view interdivisional equivalencies for a U of T course.
Administrative Application
The previous application, Transfer Navigator, has been replaced by Transfer Credit Equivalencies in the Online Administrative Student Information Services platform (OASIS). This application is designed to simplify the process of searching for, creating, assessing, and expiring transfer credits.
Benefits:
- Ensures consistency in data and eases administrators’ workloads through a new database.
- Provides a user-friendly interface with structured data entry, division-dependent drop-down selections.
- Increases data accuracy by enabling administrators to monitor the expiration of equivalencies, as well as renew, expire, and set expiration period.
- Allows administrators to specify and categorize equivalency data according to equivalency type.
