As stated in the policy, students who feel that their prior academic work is undervalued must appeal their evaluation to the Dean, through the Office of the Registrar, within two terms after admission to their program of study.

UWinsite Student will not recognize that you have the prerequisite(s) for a course until your transfer credit has been assessed.

You will need to request permission to get signed into the course. Please contact the Dean’s Office for the Faculty in which the course resides to determine that Faculty’s process for granting class permissions.

Once a class permission has been granted, you will need to log into UWinsite Student to enrol in the class.
