Why Is a Syllabus or Course Description Needed for Transfer Course Evaluation?

To get an accurate understanding of what was taught in a class, additional course information may be necessary for a transfer credit evaluation. 

If additional information is necessary to evaluate the course, an email will be sent shortly after the course is submitted to the Transfer Guide explaining what is needed. Additional information can include a syllabus, course schedule listing weekly topics covered, lab schedule, detailed course description, and textbook information.
