[ASAP] Undergraduate studies in Canada, need help!

[ahleegator]

Hi. Alright, so I'm studying in an American College and I'm actually registered in a university in the U.S. In other words, my official transcripts come from the university in the U.S. However, I want to transfer to Canada to complete my higher education. Anyways, there's a couple of questions I have. First of all, would Canadian universities/colleges transfer some of my eligible credits or do they not transfer them at all? Furthermore, the bigger problem here is that most of the Canadian universities offer my program in the Fall semester and they actually require international students (ME) to apply 2-3 months before the actual deadline for applications. The problem here is that I'm currently doing a term and I've requested for transcripts already but I'll be getting them when this term ends which is by June (and waiting would apparently not work). Is it possible for me to apply with unofficial transcripts/APR obtained by the American College I'm studying at? Like if they send my unofficial transcripts just to apply and then I could send in my official transcripts once I get them? Thanks!

It is unlikely that a uni will start reviewing/processing yr application until they receive official transcripts. do check with the uni though.

You can request yr current uni to send official transcript for the term(s) you have already completed. As for transferring credits from the current term you can speak to the prospective uni in Canada as to how that problem can be solved. they will most likely ask u to submit official transcript for current term when it is available as long as you have provided official transcripts for past terms.

it is common for some credits to be lost (not to be transferred) when seeking a credit transfer.

Remember this is only a online forum. u will only obtain logical opinions. for accurate information u should contact the relevant authorities, e.g. in yr case yr prospective uni in Canada.

Hope u will find this useful.

Good luck
