High School Transfer Credits
Queen's University may grant Transfer Credits to students coming from a number of different programs. Transfer credit assessment varies depending on the courses or curriculum that the student has completed, the student's scores/grades achieved in that program, the Queen's program that the student is entering, and the student's year of entry to Queen's. Students entering into their first year of study at Queen’s and who have previously taken courses during high school that may be eligible for transfer credit must apply for credit no later than the end of fall term of their first year. Eligible students who do not submit a transfer credit request (and all supporting documents) by the end of first term are considered to have declined credit. Transfer credit requests submitted after fall term of the student’s first year will not be assessed.
The Faculty of Arts and Science grants credit for students coming from the French Baccalaureate curriculum. A maximum of 18 credit units may be granted.
Undergraduate Admission will assess students' French Baccalaureate courses to determine whether or not Queen's credits can be granted. This assessment is based on a student's final transcript, which will be sent to Undergraduate Admission by the student's high school. As always, students should be in contact with the appropriate office in their high school to ensure that Queen's will receive their final transcripts by the appropriate deadline.
In order to be considered for credit, students must achieve a final grade of 12 or higher in their courses.
