What is the role of the CBHE in transfer and articulation?
A. Missouri statute 173.005(6) defines the CBHE’s role in transfer and articulation: The CBHE shall establish guidelines to promote and facilitate the transfer of students between institutions of higher education within the state. CBHE policy guidelines include a plan for the transfer of general education credits and for the transfer of associate of arts degrees among public institutions and independent signatory institutions. Other transfer issues are addressed by institution-to-institution articulation agreements. All transfer plans and articulation agreements follow general guidelines outlined in the state’s policy framework. These guidelines include an appeals process to follow when the system is not functioning to the satisfaction of students or institutions.
