Can I get credit for previous tertiary study or work experience?
You may be eligible for credit (advance standing) towards your UTAS degree if you have studied at another tertiary institute (or equivalent) within the last 10 years, or if you are switching degrees within UTAS. For example, you may have started a BSc at one university and are now applying to do a BSc at UTAS, or you may be switching from a BA to a BSc within UTAS. You can apply for credit when you apply for admission, or you can complete an Application for Credit form and forward it to the Faculty for consideration. If you are applying for credit based on studies from another tertiary institute you will need to include with following documents with your Application for Credit:: • Original academic transcript from that institute • Description of the unit/s you are seeking credit for. The description must include the unit title, content, level, weight, and method of assessment (this information is typically found in the handbook) Credit for work experience is not usually considered.
