As student mobility continues to rise, the United States is challenged to increase transferability between institutions of higher education. Creating courses that are recognizable across institutions can increase the number of degrees and aid the knowledge-based economy. Europe addressed this issue a decade ago when they initiated the Bologna Process. This manuscript compares credit transfer in the United States and in Europe, and makes recommendations for student affairs regarding credit transfer in U.S. higher education.
