If you are a domestic student, you may be entitled to have credit from your previous tertiary study granted towards your University of Otago undergraduate qualification. Regardless of the amount or type of transfer credit awarded, all the final year (e.g. 300-level) major subject requirements for a University of Otago degree must normally be taken and passed at the University of Otago.
Credit transferred from other institutions does not have grades attached to it so it does not contribute to your GPA calculation.
This process is available for both undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
The type and amount of credit granted is assessed on a case-by-case basis by the relevant academic division. If you need further advice about this, you can make an appointment with Student Development
Once an application has been submitted and approved, it can take up to 10 working days for credit requests to be actioned.
If you are still waiting on a response after that time, contact AskOtago.
