Manage Year Term Conversions (uAchieve)

As part of the onboarding process, institutions supplying transfer articulation rules from uAchieve® will need to provide CollegeSource with a month-by-month mapping of the Year/Terms used in transfer encoding. This article provides an overview of the process for creating, editing, and deleting year term conversions in Transferology® Lab after the initial setup has occurred. See Initial Setup of Year Term Conversions (uAchieve) for an overview of year terms and how Transferology® uses them.
