The Alberta Council on Admissions and Transfer (ACAT) is an independent body created in 1974 to facilitate transfer agreements between the various post secondary institutions in Alberta.[1] Alberta was the first province to develop a standard procedure for this process.[2]
The need for ACAT grew particularly in response to the complex situation of students who had attended colleges and wished to transfer their credits in order to attend a university.[3] ACAT facilitates the required negotiations between all stakeholders,[4] and maintains a database of the articulated courses. In 2000 the council initiated a process to develop a common grading system for Alberta universities.[5]
The ACAT course database is accessible to students through its website, and the council has also made an app available.[6]
