Template — Credit transfer request

Recognition of prior learning, or credit transfer, can exempt you from modules you have already passed elsewhere. You provide the evidence; the university decides.

Document contents

  • The template, ready to fill in: replace each field in brackets
  • A page of advice to adapt it to your situation
  • Content and level: Credit is judged on content, level and workload, not titles.
  • Ask early: Ask before you start, so you do not repeat a module.
  • Exchange students: Your learning agreement should already cover recognition.

This document is for you if…

  • You are already enrolled and have a request to make
  • You are writing to your university or a lecturer
  • You want a clear, polite and complete request first time
