Hi all--
I need help on how to transpose a large set of data which contains: year, term, student id, and sports. It gets complicated because there are some students that played multiple sports each term.

Here's what the raw data looks like:
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]YEAR_CODE
[/TD]
[TD]TERM_CODE
[/TD]
[TD]ID NUM
[/TD]
[TD]SPORTS
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2013-2014
[/TD]
[TD]20
[/TD]
[TD]31364
[/TD]
[TD]Tennis
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2014-2015
[/TD]
[TD]20
[/TD]
[TD]31364
[/TD]
[TD]Tennis
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2015-2016
[/TD]
[TD]20
[/TD]
[TD]31364
[/TD]
[TD]Tennis
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2013-2014
[/TD]
[TD]10
[/TD]
[TD]10235
[/TD]
[TD]Soccer
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2014-2015
[/TD]
[TD]10
[/TD]
[TD]10235
[/TD]
[TD]Soccer
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2013-2014
[/TD]
[TD]20
[/TD]
[TD]10235
[/TD]
[TD]Tracks
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2015-2016
[/TD]
[TD]10
[/TD]
[TD]11866
[/TD]
[TD]Basketball
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
*term 10 = fall; 20 = spring
*year = academic year

I want the format to look like this:
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]ID NUM
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2013-14
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2013-14
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2014-15
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2014-15
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2015-16
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2015-16
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]10
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]20
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]10
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]20
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]10
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]20
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]31364
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Tennis
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Tennis
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Tennis
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]10235
[/TD]
[TD]Soccer
[/TD]
[TD]Tracks
[/TD]
[TD]Soccer
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]11866
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Basketball
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

I tried the basic transpose method but it does not look like the one I have on the top. What kind of formula do I have to use for this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Try this for results on sheet2.
Code:
[COLOR="Navy"]Sub[/COLOR] MG16Feb31
[COLOR="Navy"]Dim[/COLOR] Rng [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] Range, Dn [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] Range, n [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Long,[/COLOR] K [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] Variant, c [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Long,[/COLOR] R [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] Range
[COLOR="Navy"]Dim[/COLOR] Dic [COLOR="Navy"]As[/COLOR] Object
[COLOR="Navy"]Set[/COLOR] Dic = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
Dic.CompareMode = vbTextCompare
[COLOR="Navy"]Set[/COLOR] Rng = Range("A2", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
[COLOR="Navy"]With[/COLOR] CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
.CompareMode = vbTextCompare
[COLOR="Navy"]For[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Each[/COLOR] Dn [COLOR="Navy"]In[/COLOR] Rng
    [COLOR="Navy"]If[/COLOR] Not .Exists(Dn.Value) [COLOR="Navy"]Then[/COLOR]
        n = n + 2
        .Add Dn.Value, n
    [COLOR="Navy"]End[/COLOR] If
 [COLOR="Navy"]Next[/COLOR] Dn
 
 [COLOR="Navy"]For[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Each[/COLOR] Dn [COLOR="Navy"]In[/COLOR] Rng.Offset(, 2)
    [COLOR="Navy"]If[/COLOR] Not Dic.Exists(Dn.Value) [COLOR="Navy"]Then[/COLOR]
        Dic.Add Dn.Value, Dn
    [COLOR="Navy"]Else[/COLOR]
     [COLOR="Navy"]Set[/COLOR] Dic(Dn.Value) = Union(Dic(Dn.Value), Dn)
    [COLOR="Navy"]End[/COLOR] If
[COLOR="Navy"]Next[/COLOR]
ReDim nray(1 To Dic.Count + 3, 1 To (.Count + 1) * 2)
nray(1, 1) = "ID NUM"
    [COLOR="Navy"]For[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Each[/COLOR] K [COLOR="Navy"]In[/COLOR] .keys
        nray(1, .Item(K)) = K: nray(1, .Item(K) + 1) = K
        nray(2, .Item(K)) = 10: nray(2, .Item(K) + 1) = 20
    [COLOR="Navy"]Next[/COLOR] K
c = 2
[COLOR="Navy"]For[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Each[/COLOR] K [COLOR="Navy"]In[/COLOR] Dic.keys
c = c + 1
nray(c, 1) = K
    [COLOR="Navy"]For[/COLOR] [COLOR="Navy"]Each[/COLOR] R [COLOR="Navy"]In[/COLOR] Dic(K)
        num = IIf(R.Offset(, -1) = 20, 1, 0)
        nray(c, .Item(R.Offset(, -2).Value) + num) = R.Offset(, 1).Value
     [COLOR="Navy"]Next[/COLOR] R
[COLOR="Navy"]Next[/COLOR] K
[COLOR="Navy"]End[/COLOR] With
[COLOR="Navy"]With[/COLOR] Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1").Resize(c, UBound(nray, 2))
    .Value = nray
    .Borders.Weight = 2
    .Columns.AutoFit
