Transfer Credit Resource
Welcome to the University of Manitoba Transfer Credit Resource for prospective or newly admitted students to the University of Manitoba.
External courses are reviewed on a course-by-course basis and courses are assigned University of Manitoba equivalency, where applicable. Where a direct equivalent does not exist, a course may be awarded general (unallocated) credit.
The following factors may affect course approval:
- a course may not fit a program.
- some programs may require a minimum grade in order to grant credit.
- some programs may only consider courses completed within the last ten (or fewer) years.
The Transfer Credit Resource includes active course evaluations. Applicable courses not appearing would require course evaluation to determine credit equivalency and program approval.
Please refer to the appropriate year of course completion when verifying equivalency (Effective Date). If an assessment does not exist for the year of course completion, a more recent evaluation may be utilized, where appropriate.
Last Update: February 2026
