ECTS grades for the final
"Transcript of Records"
What does "ECTS" stand
for?
The acronym ECTS stands for European
Credit Transfer and Accumulation System: European and non-European
universities use it to express the students' academic results in a standardized
way so that also other institutes abroad can recognize the student's academic
performance. Generally, in one academic year 60 ECTS credits are awarded.
Once you pass your exams
in Isparta University of Applied Sciences (IUAS), the Erasmus Office will
prepare a "Transcript of Records" where your home university can see
all the courses you took here and the grades you obtained from each of them,
thus being able to convert the local grades into its grade system.
You might wonder -how can
my home university know how to convert the grades from Isparta University of
Applied Sciences?
Here you find a table for the
conversion! Plus, in the Transcript of Records that we'll prepare for you,
there is always this table too for your university to see.
