Recognition of Prior Learning

The recognition of prior learning is a process that allows the evaluation of courses previously completed at a higher education level so that they may be counted toward equivalent courses in the current university program.

Students may apply for the recognition of prior learning under the following circumstances:

• Inter-University Course Transfer (Horizontal/Vertical Transfer):

  • Matching courses previously taken at another university with those in the current program.

  • Assessing the compatibility of course content and credit equivalence for previously completed courses.

  • Submitting course equivalency applications for horizontal or vertical transfer students.

Application Process:

• Applications for horizontal/vertical transfer are made within the dates specified in the academic calendar.

• Students must submit an official transcript and course descriptions from their previous university.

• Applications are evaluated by the relevant academic unit, and courses deemed appropriate are recognized for exemption.
