W. Va. Code R. § 135-60-3 - Definitions
3.1.
Degree-Granting Institution (DGI) -- The degree-granting institution is the
two-year institution that will award the associate degree to the reverse
transfer student. If a student has earned credit hours at more than one
institution offering an associate degree, the degree-granting institution will
be the institution where the student has accumulated the greatest number of
credit hours toward the associate degree. The degree-granting institution will
count reverse transfer students in its yearly graduation report.
3.2. Host institution -- The host institution
is the institution that will transfer credits back to the degree granting
institution. The host institution may be either a four-year or another two-year
institution.
3.3. West Virginia
Reverse Transfer (WVRT) -- West Virginia Reverse Transfer refers to the
statewide program that seeks to identify students who are often left without a
postsecondary credential even though they have earned enough credits to be
eligible for an associate degree.
3.4. WVRT eligible student -- The WVRT
student is the individual who has earned 15 or more college-level,
degree-applicable, transferable credits from a two-year institution and who
does not currently hold an associate degree or higher. Upon entry into WVRT,
the student seeks to complete the requirements for and be awarded the
appropriate associate's degree.
