Question Options/Instructions
What courses should be included when running this program?

Include courses from a bundle

Toggle the option and then Choose the bundle from the drop-down menu; the list is populated with all of the user's Course Bundles (including those shared with the user).

If no bundles are available, the drop-down will not appear.

Include a student's coursework

Toggle the option and then choose the student from the drop-down menu; the list is populated from student Information Requests within Recruit Students and Advise Students.

If no student coursework is available, the drop-down will not appear. To select student coursework, one must have the Recruiter or Advisor role.

Do not include any coursework

Option selected by default; no coursework from a bundle nor student coursework will be applied to the audit.

Do you want to view how courses from another school might apply to this program?

This question will only display for schools running uAchieve 4.2.x or higher. Institutions must also have enabled the Allow Reference Audits checkbox within the Audit Setup page within the Lab. 

Schools meeting the above requirements are provided the option to run a reference articulation audit. This audit shows current equivalencies to courses at the home/Target school in {green}, in addition to applying the bundle or student coursework selected above.

Option selected by default. Reference articulation will not be provided.

Selecting Yes will initiate a reference articulation audit.

  • Select a school from the included coursework within the drop-down menu. If no bundle or student coursework is being applied to the audit, this drop-down would not appear. 
    • If not selecting a school from included coursework, use the Select a different school drop-down menu to choose another college. This list is populated with all institutions the home/Target school has equivalencies established at (minus those included in the bundle or student coursework).


A final pop-up box will appear:

    • I understand courses are submitted assuming a passing grade which may or may not contribute to the receiving institution's GPA calculations. The exact definition of a passing grade varies from school to school. Please check with the school for information about their grade acceptance policies. For standardized exams, a median score based on national averages is used.
  3. Select Run Audit.
    • Or, select Cancel to return to the Program description page.
