Who is a Transfer candidate in CAPE?
A Transfer candidate is one who opts to transfer his/her IA from one Unit to another in nine 99) selective subjects: Economics, French, Geography, History, Law, Literatures in English, Management of Business, Sociology and Spanish. For example, if a candidate registers for History Units 1 and 2, he/she may opt to write the IA in Unit 1 and use that same IA score for Unit 2. The reverse is also allowed where the candidate submits the IA for Unit 2 and uses the IA score for the Unit 1 examination. The term “Transfer” here MUST not be confused with those candidates transferring from one centre to another or from one country to another. That is a different arrangement.
