In this article:
Overview
The Programs page is accessible to all Transferology® Lab users, regardless of role(s). Here, users can view Program information supplied by the institution to Transferology®. If the school supplies uAchieve® degree audits, Lab users can also run audits and view previously requested audits.
To navigate to Programs:
- Go to Advising & Recruiting.
- Select Programs.
Two tabs are available:
- Programs
- My Program Requests
Programs
The Programs tab displays by default, with an alphabetical listing of all Programs available at the school in the Program Name field. A Program's associated Degree Type is displayed, along with a hyperlink for Program Information and Run Program (this generates a uAchieve® degree audit, if supplied by the school).
Depending on the number of Programs at the institution, the table of Program Names could be quite extensive. Scroll through the alphabetical list, or sort by typing into the Program field to search for the program of interest:
In the example above, the search "Engl" includes English and excludes Engineering.
School Name
The School Name field defaults to the name of the institution the user is logged in from:
To view Programs at other institutions, type over the existing text in the School Name field. Select the School Name once it appears.
The Program Names automatically change to reflect the school selected.
Special Scenarios
No Programs Found for Selected School
A school may not have any Programs loaded into the Program Name list. In this case, Program information will be unavailable.
Running a Program Not Enabled
A school may have some Program data loaded in Transferology®, but has not enabled running a Program. In this case, Program Information Links will be available but the Run Program hyperlink will not display.
Run Program
To generate a Program audit:
- Locate the Program Name on the Programs tab.
- Select the Run Program hyperlink to the right of the desired Program.
If the school supplies uAchieve® degree audits, Transferology® Lab will walk the user through a sequence of question pop-up dialogue boxes. Answer the questions, using the Next button to proceed to the following question. Some questions (not included below) may be state-specific, created by the institution.
