TAGS (Transfer Assurance Guides)
TAGs (Transfer Assurance Guides) are groups of foundational courses that represent a commonly accepted pathway to the bachelor's degree. Courses or course sequences identified as being a part of the TAG may be offered at any public higher education institution in Ohio.
TAGs include the Ohio Transfer Module - both required and elective courses, and then moves beyond those courses into additional hours in pre-major and major courses. Courses in TAGS are guaranteed to transfer and apply directly
to the major. In its totality, the TAGS become a guaranteed pathway for students and is a very powerful advising tool for faculty and other advisors.
There are 38 TAGS in eight specific discipline areas presently involving 6,500 plus courses. The TAGS are developed, approved, and monitored by Ohio's public institutions for higher education.
For a list of Washington State approved TAG courses visit the TAGS Bulletin Board, an Ohio Board of Regents Web site.
