Transfer Credit Appeal

Admitted students who have received general transfer credit such as 1XX or 2XX can request a transfer credit appeal.   In order to determine whether these courses are equivalent to an SFU course, you must submit detailed course outlines for further evaluation.   These course outlines should include:

• a statement of course objective(s)
• the duration/number of weeks (excluding final exam period)
• hours per week of lecture (laboratory/tutorial/seminar/studio work) and the hours per week of required open laboratory work or open studio work
• the method of evaluation and grading
• week by week topics covered
• the textbook(s) used and/or other required readings
• the amount of credit/units earned
