CollegeSource is excited to join AACRAO in Columbus, Ohio, next week for the AACRAO Annual Meeting. The theme of this year’s conference is Implementing Success. As a company, this theme touches close to home for us as our mission statement is:

Maximizing human potential by expanding awareness of educational and career opportunities.

In other words, as a vendor partner and company, we strive to do what we can to help support other organizations that have a shared cause and purpose. AACRAO conferences provide an opportunity for professional development, networking, and a space to talk to other members of the Higher Ed community, which ultimately benefits students. Additionally, these conferences have allowed us to listen to and exchange ideas with the people we are trying to serve. 

Our software primarily supports the work of registrars, admissions, and advisors by providing solutions focused on degree achievement and transfer. These products are used by more than 2,000 colleges and universities, serving more than 70 percent of students across the US. 

We invite you to stop by our booth (#417) at the AACRAO Annual Meeting to learn more about the following CollegeSource Solutions:

  • TES®, the Transfer Evaluation System, is an all-in-one solution that enables registrars, enrollment managers, and transfer coordinators to quickly research transfer credit, track evaluations, and manage equivalencies. Utilizing the industry’s largest higher education course catalog database with over 157 million courses descriptions and 186,000 course catalogs compiled and maintained by CollegeSource, TES employs robust algorithms to generate lists of likely equivalencies between institutions.
  • Transferology® is a nationwide, open transfer network with access to millions of course-to-course equivalencies and program-to-program pathways, providing students with personalized answers about where their college credit will count. This information helps students, advisors, and parents make more informed decisions when transferring higher education credit. March 31st marked the 10th anniversary of Transferology, and there’s a lot to celebrate. Over the last decade, Transferology has seen over 32.4 million equivalencies added, 2.3 million student accounts created, 31.5 million courses added, 687.3 million search results provided to students, 12.6 million student views of match details, and 619K degree audits run. 
  • uAchieve® is a comprehensive, cloud-based degree audit, academic planning, and schedule building solution that aids students and advisors in planning and tracking progress toward degree and credential achievement. With uAchieve, students are provided with tailored degree audit reports illustrating their progress and outlining any remaining courses or requirements needed. Additionally, the new Planner considers students’ individual academic careers, such as credits earned/taken, intended graduation date, etc., and uses this information to dynamically auto-create plans for the student. Any changes to these plans are then validated against the degree audit to ensure that planned courses apply toward graduation.
  • The Higher Ed Policy Central© was developed to help administrators, researchers, policy analysts, faculty, and staff quickly access and compare official policies from US institutions ranging from academia and campus health and safety to legal, disability, diversity, equity, and inclusion, among others. Through our longstanding partnership, we collaborated with AACRAO and built the industry’s first-ever higher education policy database. The portal is free for all AACRAO members and contains over 1,200 catalogs from nearly 1,000 institutions. 

If you’re not attending the conference or want to learn more about us and our products before the conference, sign up for one of our live monthly webinars. The webinars highlight the innovative approach CollegeSource solutions take in empowering students of all backgrounds to plan and complete their academic careers as quickly and efficiently as possible.  

We look forward to seeing those of you attending the AACRAO Annual Meeting in Columbus and helping you Implement Success on your path of serving students in higher education. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please email info@collegesource.com.
