Hey Aska! I have a question for you.<\/p>\n
I transferred here from another university after one year, and got granted 5.0 transfer credits (yay!). But then I realized, my program requires me to complete certain things in certain years (boo). Therefore I am one year ahead in this program, since I have all those credits to my name, but the credits are in a completely different faculty! I actually don’t even need them to complete my degree here.<\/p>\n
Sooo, I was wondering, is there any way to ditch those transfer credits? They’re making me second year when I’m actually not. It really whomps since I will likely be forced to take summer classes.<\/p>\n
Sincerely,
\nL.<\/p>\n

Dear L.<\/p>\n
It is really hard for me to answer your question because I don’t know what your program is! So the best thing I can do is advise you to see your college registrar about your question and book an appointment. You can’t really “ditch” transfer credits after they have been assessed. They go towards your Subject PoST (which is…?) but do not count towards your GPA. If they aren’t helping you finish your degree, then maybe at least one can be used for a distribution credit or something? If you are even more confused, here is additional info from the transfer credit office.<\/a><\/p>\n Whomp, whomp, whomp.<\/p>\n xoxo, Askastudent<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hey Aska!
