The new Transfer Credit Reevaluation and Preapproval (TCRP) system will be rolled out to users based on their roles:

  • Request Approvers: December 2, 2024
  • Advisors: December 16, 2024
  • Students: January 13, 2025

While the new TCRP system will be available early in the Spring 2025 semester, with early access for approvers, the legacy transfer system (TCRP 1.0) will remain available until the end of the Spring 2025 semester. As links to the new TCRP system are posted, existing links will be marked “Legacy” to indicate the original system.

Here are some highlights of the improvements made in TCRP 2.0:

  • ADA Compliance
  • Attaching syllabi to requests
  • Receiving email notifications upon approval or denial
  • Design enhancements
  • Streamlined request forms
  • Advisor submission on behalf of a student
  • Faster overall process
  • Increased search options for approvers

Review the comprehensive Transfer Credit Re-Evaluation & Preapproval (TCRP) System guide for detailed instructions for students, advisors, and approvers.

Request Approvers, such as Department Heads, will have access to the new system starting December 2nd. Look for the TCRP System 2.0 card in My Missouri State.
