Vertical Credit Transfer refers to the transfer of credit from one programme to another programme of higher academic level (i.e. from diploma qualification to bachelor degree qualification)
 
 
Criteria for Credit Transfer
  • Students who have obtained a diploma or higher academic qualification of an accredited programme are eligible for the consideration of credit transfer
  • The course mapping must achieve at least 80% similarity in course content and learning outcomes
  • Application for credit transfer must be done in the first semester during the stipulated period unless with the approval of the Dean
  • Minimum grade is C - achieving minimum UMP course passing grade
 
Documentation Required
Applications for credit transfer require an original or certified copy of your result transcript and course syllabus (course synopsis, details topics, number of hours). If photocopies are provided, they need to be certified by a person authorised to witness a statutory declaration.

Important Note: Application without complete documentation will not be assessed and will be returned to you.
