Some common Qs & As

  • Q1. Do I need to take the prerequisites for...
  • A1. Prerequisites are there for a reason. Courses build upon knowledge learned in the prerequisites courses. There are circumstances for which the department may waive a prerequisite, evaluated on an individual basis. However, BIOC 300A and BIOC 300B prerequisites are not waived.
  • Q2. What is a 'level credit'?
  • A2. Some of your courses may not have a counterpart at Uvic or they may be missing a particular topic so the respective dept won't give you a specific transfer credit. So, for instance you may see MATH 10L instead of MATH 151 on your transfer credit evaluation.
