Important Transfer Credit Information
Transfer Equivalency Course Search
The Transfer Equivalency Course Search is used to determine how courses completed at other institutions may transfer to Appalachian State University, specifically.
Common Numbering System (CNS) Transfer Course Search
The CNS Transfer Course Search was developed by the UNC System Office to help a prospective transfer student determine how courses completed at other 4-year UNC institutions and at a NC Community College may transfer to any UNC System 4-year school. Entering a course into the search will provide output showing how the course transfers to any of the University of North Carolina System's 4-year schools.
