Course Bundles: Sort and Filter Replacement Bundle Matches

Course Bundles are grouped collections of courses, standardized exams, military credits, and program requirements within Transferology® Lab. These can be used by college staff to provide students with more efficient advisements and to research transfer scenarios. Pre-named bundles can be automatically created from advising & recruiting leads.

Staff can create Replacement Bundles and Collaborative Replacement Bundles to find courses students can transfer back to the home institution to fulfill course or program requirements. Sometimes, the list of schools from which courses can be taken is extensive. This article will detail how to use Sort and Filter options to narrow Match results to specific needs/preferences.
