Does the 7-or-10 transfer credit limit apply to courses taken within Queens, while I was a student in another degree program, which I did not complete?
No, this limit does not apply. For example, a student in ECE who transfers to CISC does not have Queen’s courses count in the “maximum of 10 transfer credits” that is applied to 4 year degrees. If the student entered ECE at Queen’s with transfer credits from another university, he/she is not penalized by changing to a CISC program. Here is another example. Suppose a student transfers to Queen’s after two years at UBC, receiving 10 transfer credits for the courses taken there, and enters a degree program in English. After one year, the student decides to switch into a Computing degree. The 10 transfer credits from UBC, plus the courses taken since arriving at Queen’s, would all be eligible for inclusion in the Computing degree.
