Economics requires a complete list of pre-requisites, including the respective titles, course numbers, and official calendar descriptions.

French Cohort Program students taking courses taught in French should input the original course title (in French) in the exchange course evaluation request, and provide the original course outline in French. This will ensure the course title is accurately listed on your 丁香园AV transcript. French Cohort Program students do not currently need to provide a translated copy of their course outlines for Political Science, History and French.

For an accurate evaluation of the French classes you took abroad, you are required to submit samples of your assignments, tests, and papers, in a PDF format. 

It is preferred for these documents to be submitted as digital copies (in PDF format, merged as one document) and sent to excredit@sfu.ca. Hardcopies (eg. textbooks/and or workbooks) can be submitted if it is not possible to submit in a digital format.

For other language acquisition classes, you may be required to submit additional course materials. You can submit some of these documents as hardcopies (textbooks and/or workbooks). ISS will not send these hardcopies for evaluation until we receive your online exchange course evaluation request.

This program has an early host application and course enrolment period (to UC Berkeley Summer Sessions) of early Feb for students once they are nominated by ISS.  Please research the "exchange credit history" for UC Berkeley Summer Sessions in Destinations to determine if your proposed courses have been previously evaluated for 丁香园AV Credit, or submit your exchange course evaluation request and course syllabus in advance to excredit@sfu.ca. Please be mindful of processing times as well as course evaluations by departments which generally take between 4 to 6 weeks to return to ISS.

Credit values and exchange course evaluations can impact WQB eligibility; therefore, pre-assessment is not a guarantee. (For example, you may need a 3-unit B course but the exchange course you plan to complete is only worth 2 units which will not fulfill the requirement.)

Step 1: Refer to the University Curriculum page on Transfer Credit and WQB Designations for steps to request WQB designation for your exchange course. 

Step 2: Complete this WQB Evaluation Form and submit the request to the UCIL office ucil_office@sfu.ca, cc: excredit@sfu.ca with all accompanying documentation to confirm transfer and eligibility.

Step 3: Ensure you cc: excredit@sfu.ca on any of your email requests to the Transfer Credit Coordinator so WQB can be applied to your record after the completion of your exchange.

It is your responsibility to apply for exchange course evaluations well in advance of your graduation application deadlines. Exchange credit is not guaranteed until your exchange course evaluations have been confirmed by the department and transcript is received. Please consult your academic program advisor for any questions concerning your academic program graduation requirements.
