Navigating College Class Transfer Websites

Are there specific transfer websites or tools you recommend for checking how my college classes transfer to different schools? I'm especially interested in finding something user-friendly.

You might want to consider starting with the resources provided by the schools you're interested in. Some universities have articulation agreements with community colleges, which outline accepted courses for transfer. These agreements often exist on the university's website and are typically found within the transfer admission pages.

A generic but useful tool to check transfer credits is "Transferology." It's an online tool designed to facilitate college credit transfers. You'd need to create a profile, input your coursework, and then you can look up how these courses might transfer to thousands of schools across the U.S.

Also, if you're in California and are looking to transfer within the state's public higher education systems, "ASSIST" is an online student-transfer information system that shows how course credits earned at one public California college or university can be applied when transferred to another.

Further, some universities also have 'Transfer Equivalency' tools where you put in courses you've taken, and it'll tell you how they'd equate at that university. However, availability varies by institution.

These tools tend to be user-friendly and straightforward to navigate. Do keep in mind though that these are only tools to get a general idea. Always make sure you're communicating with the transfer admissions office at your prospective schools to ensure you have the most accurate and recent information regarding transfers.
