Create and Manage Institution Profile Notes

This articles provides an overview of how to create and manage User Added Admin Notes within an institution profile in TES®.

Institution Profile

Colleges and universities have a number of resources available within TES® to assist in reviewing both whether credit can be accepted from an institution and for evaluating the credit itself. The institution profiles of United States schools contain information such as institution type, degree levels, calendar system, and accreditation. Additionally, transcript keys, if available, are supplied for review.

Colleges and universities may wish to supplement these resources with additional information about the institution that can be used in the evaluation process; for example, institution name changes, points of contact, and other helpful notes. TES Administrators can opt to record this information as User Added Admin Notes in TES. These notes are internal to the college or university and can be viewed by all active TES users at the school anywhere the institution profile displays.

Notes will display in descending order of which they were created. If more than three notes exist, the user can select View More to see all institution notes.
