English term or phrase: articulate from
This is a requirement for entry to an Australian University:

"Students can study English at the Language Centre at the University main campus. Students can also articulate from numerous language or business colleges;"

Does it means the students can learn in other school and then use their study result to meet the entry requirement?

BP232 Bachelor of Technology (Computing Studies)

This three year degree can be though of as an ultra-flexible IT degree. Students need not have studied year 12 mathematics to be eligible for entry. Students can take up to 50% non IT subjects if they choose. Because this degree is so flexible, it is also usually the degree of choice for students who wish ***to articulate from another institution*** (eg from an Engineering Diploma) and gain maximum credit for their studies. This degree is also ideal for the student who has a foot in the IT camp and would like a foot in either another camp or in a range of camps to round off their degree.

There are similar degrees in europe, too.
For example, one may study translation, choose a law course in the Law School and receive the credits for the course in his/her Translation School.

Explanation:
I thought it might be a misprint for "matriculate", but I found another example, also Australian, so I think it may be Australian English. It's about four in the morning over there at the moment, but if you leave this question open for a few more hours, you may get a more authoritative reply from there.
