Transfer Credits (Exemptions) / Advanced Standing

READ CAREFULLY!
Receiving transfer credits (exemptions) may affect your course load which in turn may impact your fees and eligibility for OSAP, scholarships, bursaries and other sponsorships.

You may be able to transfer credits you have earned at other educational institutions. A processing fee of $26 per transfer credit (exemption) request must accompany your request. The fee is non-refundable. There is no fee for transfer credit based on Niagara College courses.

The deadline to submit your application is 90 days prior to the start of term. Requests received after the deadline may not be processed by the start the term.

You are required to attend all classes until you are officially notified that your request was granted or denied.

To apply for Transfer Credit (Exemptions)

To evaluate your request, the college requires:

  • An official copy of your transcript
  • Learning outcomes of the course
  • Length of the course (in hours)
