Create Equivalencies to User Added Transfer Courses

This article contains instructions for creating equivalencies to User Added Transfer Courses through the Course Finder.

Creating an equivalency to a User Added Transfer Course is just the same as creating an equivalency to any other transfer course in TES®.

To begin:

1. Go to the Search menu.
2. Select Course Finder.

Locate the User Added Transfer Institution

1. Within the INSTITUTION SEARCH, enter the name of the institution.
   • The U.S. Schools radio button is selected by default.
     • To search for institutions outside of the United States, toggle either the Non U.S. Schools or All radio button.
   • Users should be aware that abbreviations and alias searches cannot be used to locate User Added Institutions within the INSTITUTION SEARCH fields in TES. CollegeSource recommends entering the full name of the User Added Institution (or at least the most unique part).
2. Select the Search button.
3. Select the arrow to the left of the institution's name ("Select an institution").

Select a Data Set

Once the institution has been located:

1. Under DATA SET, select the data set containing the course to which an equivalency will be created.
   • Another option is to use the Course Code or Course Title radio buttons to search across all data sets.
2. Click on or tab to the Select button.

3. Select the checkbox to the left of the course or course(s) to which an equivalency will be created.

• Search by Course Code, Course Title, or use the SELECT DEPARTMENT drop-down.
• A user may opt to create an equivalency to one or multiple courses.

4. Select View.

Create the Equivalency

Once the course(s) has been selected, follow the steps within Create Equivalency.
