Transfer Credit Request Form

Students enrolled in a School of Continuing Studies (SCS) certificate program may apply for one transfer credit per certificate program*.

Approved courses must meet the following criteria:

  • Transfer credit requests must be submitted the day before the first class of the program, by 11:59 pm EST/EDT. No exceptions will be made.
  • There must be an 80% overlap in content and curriculum, and the same number of hours as the course offered in SCS’s program.
  • The external course must have been taken at a recognized Canadian public university or college, or from an international institution if verified with a World Education Services Comprehensive Course-by-Course Report”. University courses with a grade equivalent to a “C” (60% ) or better will be considered. College courses with a grade equivalent to a “B” (70%) or better will be considered. Private career colleges are excluded.
  • *Students who complete one SCS certificate and enrol in a second SCS certificate that includes some of the same courses as the first certificate, will receive one (1) pre-determined course exemption and up to two (2) course substitutions to prevent repetition of coursework. No additional course exemptions or substitutions will be permitted.
