Course of Study. Application for transfer credit(s) must be

received prior to the start of the academic year.

Once this period

has passed, students must apply for exemptions.

See

‘Regulation 3’ in the

Student Handbook

for policy and

procedures

.

Exemption

An exemption is: (a) the award of credits for workplace or

professionally certified experience where the learning outcomes

are deemed equivalent to those prescribed in a UTech module

and/or; (b) the award of credits for equivalent module

successfully pursued at an approved institution, which were not

considered during initial application to the course of study.

Students will be assigned a grade of EXEM for exemption, which

will not be calculated in the GPA.

Students who have received approval for exemption on modules

from the university’s academic board will be required

to pay

the

associated cost assigned to the module, and will not be entitled to

a reduction in fees and/or refund.

The number of transfer credit(s) and exemptions may affect the

eligibility for certain class of awards. See ‘Regulation 3’ in the

Handbook.
