Managing your program

Credit transfer & advanced standing

If you have completed study prior to enrolling at UNSW in the past 10 years, you may be eligible for a credit transfer which gives you credit towards your current degree and shortens the length of your program.

Submit your application for credit transfer as early as possible to avoid delays and completing courses that are ultimately not required for your degree completion.
