After you are admitted to Nord University, you may apply for credit relating to elective courses. In some circumstances, you may also apply for credit relating to specific courses if the content and scope of previous education is equivalent to courses offered within the study programme you are applying for. This process requires comprehensive documentation of course content and literature.
There are strict requirements relating to:
- how much credit the institution can award you and how many credit points you must take at Nord University in order to qualify for a degree from Nord University,
- how credit may be applied (you will usually not be granted exemption from parts of courses)
- overlap in academic content.
Please note: You may not apply for transfer of credit for courses that formed the basis of your admission to Nord University. For example: If the admission requirements include courses in mathematics and you were granted admission because you took courses in mathematics in a previous bachelor degree, you may not subsequently apply for credit relating to your qualifications within mathematics.
