Waive course-by-course evaluations for block general education transfers

Two-year to four-yearappliesFour-year to two-yearwith adaptationFour-year to four-yearwith adaptation

Mechanism

A completed general education block or associate degree satisfies the university's lower-division requirements outright. No course-by-course review, so no credit quietly lost.

Preconditions

A cloud degree audit system talking to shared student information systems in real time.

Owner, by role

Director of Transfer Credit Evaluation / University Registrar

Who can act

System, state or accreditor (University of Hawaii Board of Regents)

Effort

Medium, 6 months to first visible effect

Outcome metric

General education credits lost in transfer

Failure modes

University registrars may continue to manually inspect syllabi for minor course differences, violating the spirit of block waiver agreements.

Contra-indications

Specific professional majors (e.g. engineering) with rigid math/science sequences may require course-by-course prerequisite checks regardless.
