Current UA students wishing to take courses at another university or community college will need to complete a transient letter to give to that respective institution.
Please follow these steps to generate a letter of transiency:
- In myBama, click the “Student” tab.
- Under Banner Self-Service, click the link “Letter of Transiency.”
- Choose the term, state, and school (institution). Verify the institution address is correct.
- Click the “Select Transfer Courses” to proceed to the next screen.
- In the left column of the Transfer Corse Selection, choose the desired course and click “>” to move the course(s) into the right column.
Note: Before selecting your course(s), use the Course Equivalencies Table at the bottom of the page to make sure you choose the correct course. Be certain your desired course actually has a UA equivalent. After using the tables, if you are still uncertain, please visit the Transfer Equivalency System at https://ssb.ua.edu/pls/PROD/rtstreq.P_Searchtype.
- Once you have chosen your course(s), click “continue” to proceed to the final screen.
- After verifying that your information is correct, click “Generate Transient Letter.”
- Print a copy of this generated letter for your records and a copy to send to the institution. (Check with the respective institution for transient letter delivery options.)
