We recommend you apply for a credit transfer if you've previously completed your study. This can be from a course you've completed at CDU or another institution.
You need to have completed your course within the last 7 years, and it should be relevant to the new course you're studying.
If it's been longer than 7 years since you completed your course, we suggest you apply for a Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) instead.
Credit will appear on your Academic Record as either a unit (if the unit you completed directly matches the learning outcomes of a CDU unit) or as several credit points at a certain level. This is called unspecified credit and can be used in place of any general electives in your study plan.
