File Questions

Files are stored and available on FTP for up to 180 days. Go to “File Submission Summary” on the Reverse Transfer user interface and select “Generate” for the files you would like to access.

The Clearinghouse encourages schools to send cumulative data for students in every file they submit. Our robust de-duping processes will identify coursework previously submitted.

Including the student’s entire history in every submission ensures that complete records have been sent. While you have the option to send data for only one period, we have found extracts can be tricky if a student stops out and then re-admits, or if there were grade changes. The Clearinghouse will create the files for the two-year schools accordingly.

The Clearinghouse encourages schools to submit data for all transfer students who have given consent to have their records exchanged. We will process your file and send the information to the appropriate two-year school, wherever it is in the U.S.
