MET students who have earned credits outside their current program (e.g., from a different university, in a different UBC master’s program, as an undergraduate, etc.) may transfer these credits – up to 6 credits for master’s degree students and 3 credits for certificate students – provided that:
- the course was not used as a basis for admission to the program;
- the course was not used to satisfy the requirements of another credential;
- the course is at the 3rd year level or above;
- the course is structured for academic advancement (not continuing education, training, professional development, etc. – the easiest way to determine this is to see if the host institution grants credit for the course toward an academic degree, not a certificate or diploma);
- the course is graded (not pass/fail) and at least a B standing (UBC 74%) was earned;
- you have not already reached the maximum number of allowed transfer courses allowed;
- the course has been taken within five years of commencement of the current program.
If the course meets all of the stipulations above, please click the link below to be directed to the Request Form. The form will be forwarded to the Academic Advisor, who will then respond to your request.
