Evaluations and Transfer Credit

5.3.1 Block Transfer Credit/College Diploma

Through articulation agreements with other institutions, Athabasca University accepts many college diplomas and other credentials as blocks of transfer credit toward Athabasca University programs. In these cases, the student’s transcript is reviewed, and transfer credit is awarded as a block of credit rather than on a course-by-course basis.

Block transfer arrangements are most often associated with specific programs and may not be applicable to all Athabasca University credentials. Athabasca University has articulated courses and programs from more than 240 institutions and organizations.

If an articulation agreement is not in place, your prior education will be assessed on an individual basis. To determine how your previous education could transfer to an Athabasca University program, contact an Athabasca University advisor or refer to the Transfer Credit Search website below.
