DARS Catalogs and New Course Inserts
DARS Catalogs
DARS Catalogs are available for all Minnesota colleges, and selected North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin institutions. DARS Catalogs are available for AP, CLEP, DSST, and IB standardized exams.
DARS catalogs can be inserted into existing tables, or can be sent as new tables. Inserting DARS catalogs allows you to insert courses into existing tables, retaining the articulation rules you may have previously created.
DARS catalogs include the institutional reference and transfer articulation tables. The Institutional Reference table includes the Source ID, Name, First Year/Term, Grade Definition, course display and credit values. The Transfer Articulation table includes the Source ID, First Year/Term, source course and title, and a generic Target course. Unless specified, the Target course is ELECT∗∗∗. The DARS catalogs can be inserted into your DARwin by the DARS Team.
