Transferring

Yet another UTM transfer

Hey Aska,

These two questions may seem silly, but I find there are several ways in which each of? the three campuses are treated as one university, yet other ways in which they are? treated as seperate ones.

1) I’m a second-year UTM student who is in the process of transferring downtown? (surprise, surprise), and I am currently enrolled in ITA100Y5 at UTM. I recall reading?something about how language courses from other universities don’t transfer over, but? since ITA100Y5 should essentially be the same as ITA100Y1 at UTSG, would I still receive? a credit?

2) I also read that grades from other institutions don’t transfer, so does that apply to?students from other U of T campuses?

And I just have one more question: assuming all important documents have been received? and processed by Awards and Admissions, my CGPA is much higher than the cutoff, and all? other necessary tasks are done, when should I typically hear that I have been accepted?

Regards
Adrian

Oh heeeey Adrian,

Here is some information.
Based on this:

  • It is understood that no two institutions offer exactly the same courses. As long as the course is academic in nature (e.g. not clinical) and meets the criteria for courses offered here, it will probably be transferred. For example, a course in Dance would be not transferred but a course in the History of Dance might be considered.
  • I couldn’t see why your course would not be transferred, as they seem rather similar. It’s up to the faculty if the credit will count.

    I exhausted several of my reliable search techniques (blackmail, stalking, etc) and have come to the conclusion that they do not like to reveal inforamtion about internal transfers. I’m going to assume they don’t have a specific time that it will be processed in, as it probably depends on the complexity and demand of the application.

    The transfer credit website states that the process for transfering credits is:
    ” Normally, a domestic assessment takes approximately 3-4 weeks and a foreign assessment up to ten weeks. ”

    Hopefully some of this scattered information helps, if not run over to your academic advisor or credit transfer office and they can give you the low down.

    Peace,
    Aska
