Transfer

The files of transferred applicants are studied first by the hosting academic unit which submits afterwards its remarks and opinion to the Admission Committee for the final acceptance decision.
In case of admission by transfer of file, the evaluation of credits which might be transferred is based on the following criteria:
  • The course validated by transfer must have the same credit hours as its equivalent in the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik;
  • According to the American system, the minimum grade obtained in the original University which can be accepted during a transfer is 80/100. For some programs, a higher grade can be required. In all cases, the student must have passed the course validated by transfer, in his/her original university;
  • Courses validated six years ago, or more, before the admission date, cannot be taken into account (unless the Admission Commission decides otherwise);
  • The number of transferred credits cannot exceed 33% of the total number of credits required for graduate studies;
  • All transferred credits are declared and validated during admission to the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik; afterwards, no transferred credits can be added.

The grade T will be given to the transferred courses and the student cannot repeat a transferred course by registering for its equivalent in the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik.

The Transfer File has to be submitted, along with all required documents, to the Orientation and Admission Office, three weeks at least before the beginning of the registration period. 

European Credits Transfer Mode

The transfer of European credits (ECTS) to North-American credits used at USEK takes place in graduate studies according to the following scheme:
  • For a Master of 36 or 39 North-Amercian credits: 1 North-Amercian credit is equal to 3,33 ECTS credits.

In order to be recognized as transferable, ECTS credits must correspond to courses deemed equivalent to courses at USEK which will be validated by transfer. The only ECTS credits that can be recognized as transferable must also correspond to courses graded A and B, regardless of the numerical value assigned to these courses.
