Keywords 

CollegeSource: Refers to “TES®: Transfer Evaluation System,” where SMCCD course matches are housed. To avoid confusion with our service “TES: Transcript Evaluation Services,” our department will refer to CollegeSource-TES, as just “CollegeSource.” 

Course Match: This refers only to the SMCCCD College’s Prefix + Course Number. This does NOT necessarily mean that the incoming course has the same Attributes as SMCCCD’s course. In this screenshot the course match would be ANTH 125 at the College of San Mateo.  

Attributes: These are the requirements the course could satisfy based on the information we have and the relevant standards. In this example, CSUSB’s ANTH 100 course can be applied towards AA/AS Social Science, CSU GE area D, IGETC area 4, and either local AA/AS degrees or ADTs. Please see attribute legend. 

Begin & End Date: In the example the course match & its attributes are applicable to students who took CSUSB’s ANTH 100 starting Fall 2000 (8/1/2000) to the end of Summer 2020. The End date serves as a “stopper,” indicating that the course must be reevaluated for any students who took ANTH 100 starting the Fall 2020 term (8/1/2020). 

• Month: 8: Fall; 5: Summer; 3: Winter/Spring 
• Day: “01” signifies the start of the term  
• Year: Academic Year
