The evaluation can include courses from another college or university, AP and听IB credit, A-Levels, and听military courses or occupations.

Understanding Your Report

Your听transfer credit report includes the type, term, course number, title and grade earned for each item evaluated by the Office of Admissions (the "source"), as well as any CU Boulder course that was granted in transfer听(the "target").

Under each institution, you'll see听the following information:

  • Type: "Source" indicates the course you're transferring in, while听"Target" indicates the CU Boulder course that was granted in the evaluation.听The source course will have an fletched arrow icon听next to the course number; the target course will have a target icon.
  • Term: When the course was completed.
  • Course: The source course ID is listed on the top line, and听the CU Boulder course that was granted in the evaluation is listed on the bottom line.
  • Grade: "T" indicates that no letter grade was assigned to the transfer course; a letter following the "T" indicates the original letter grade earned. "NTR" indicates that the course was not accepted in transfer.
  • IFlag1-IFlag5: If populated, these codes typically refer to the course's applicability toward a specific requirement. For the complete list of course attribute flags, see听Transfer Credit Information Flags.
  • Subject Number Ending in 999: This means that the credit did not have a direct transfer equivalent at CU Boulder and so it was assigned the generic number of 1999, 2999, 3999, etc.
