Transfer Credits

At Lakeland College we consider transfer credit from all accredited post-secondary institutions and on a case-by-case basis from non-accredited institutions.

If you've attended another post-secondary institution and would like credit for the courses you took there, you need to fill out a transfer credit form (pdf).

International students may also apply for a transfer credit from an accredited Canadian post-secondary before they start at Lakeland College.

If you attended a college or university in Alberta, Nunavut, the Northwest Territories or Saskatchewan, you might also want to check out the applicable online transfer guides. Check out the Alberta Council on Admissions and Transfer.

Note: Some of our programs have a certain percentage residency requirement. This may mean you only get credit for some courses because you have to take a certain amount of credits at Lakeland in order to earn your certificate, diploma or applied degree.

Transfer credit is one way Lakeland College acknowledges prior learning. The others are course substitution and prior learning assessment and recognition.
