What is the Transfer Equivalency System (TES)?

• TES is an exhaustive course description database.
• The database contains complete course details, including course code, title, description and number of credits.
• TES also encompasses a suite of tools specifically aimed at automating and streamlining educational business processes.
• These processes include: analysis of transfer courses and transcripts, the administration and maintenance of course equivalencies, and communication of course data between staff, users, and faculty.

What is a TES Evaluation Task?

• The Office of the Registrar is now in charge of articulating transfer work for students from all across the globe. As a result, it is important that we have our faculty weighing in on the course work that comes to our office so that students receive the appropriate equivalencies for their work.
• Through TES, course descriptions can be included in Evaluation Tasks and then routed to advisors and faculty evaluators for their review and approval. This process is tracked within the database, eliminating the need for a paper or an e-mail trail.
