Biology Transfer Equivalency Request Form
Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*).
Complete this request form in its entirety; list the course numbers for which you are seeking equivalency in the comments section along with any special requests and/or explanations.
One form may be used to evaluate multiple courses.
Attach an accurately labeled
(e.g. syllabus_BIOL205.pdf) syllabus for each biology course that includes:
The course textbook title and author
A detailed list of course topics (and lab topics if applicable)
Any required prerequisites
If transfer equivalency is determined, you will be notified via email and the department will make a request to the University Registrar on your behalf to have your TER updated. Please allow 1-2 weeks to process your request. The process may take longer during busy periods (i.e. registration).
