DegreeReady vs EAB Transfer Portal

DegreeReady is a web platform for managing student progression from degree-program setup through planning and auditing. Students can map planned and completed units by semester, move subjects with drag and drop, and receive warnings when plans break program rules. The system shows the cost of each subject and the total degree cost, plus completion percentages, remaining subjects or credit points, projected graduation dates, and credit points per subject. Advisors can create version-controlled templates linked to program structures, including templates based on career goals or pathways and wildcard subjects. They can work with students remotely or in person and use What If scenarios to examine alternatives and transferable credits. Administrators and advisors can receive alerts when students fall behind or plans become invalid. On-demand audits compare enrolled and completed subjects from an existing Student Management System with degree rules. Institutions can open access to prospective students and agents. DegreeReady is paid, with pricing on request, and has no free plan or trial.

EAB Transfer Portal is a web tool for prospective transfer students and the institutional teams supporting recruitment and enrollment. Students can explore how prior coursework may fit a degree, review majors and related career information, and receive customized guidance through application and enrollment steps. The portal uses institutional student-information-system and degree-audit data to show credit estimates and progress toward a degree. Admissions staff get a dashboard for monitoring portal use, finding course-equivalency gaps, and collecting information for outreach. EAB describes analytics for identifying feeder schools and transfer-yield opportunities. Portal accounts can be exported to an institution’s CRM, and the product includes transfer-credit rules. Partner institutions receive events, resources, and guidance from a strategic leader. EAB says it uses physical, administrative, and technological safeguards for personal information. The portal is web-based, while pricing is on request. Access to the Transfer Portal help center and partner resource center requires EAB partnership access.
