What credits can be transferred from another university?
Arts/Science elective credits are transferred following an appraisal of the student’s transcript(s). Credit may be granted for courses passed with a grade of C or better at other universities, up to the limit imposed by McGill residency requirements and program requirements. This evaluation is done automatically in late August, just prior to advising interviews. As far as Music credits are concerned, applicants seeking exemption from program requirements on the basis of advanced music studies or work done elsewhere will be required to sit placement examinations in late August in Theory, Musicianship (Ear Training & Keyboard Proficiency) and Music History, to determine their course levels.
