    A qualification which is eligible for advanced standing is assigned a Total Credit Value (TCV).<\/p>

    If the TCV of a qualification = 0, the qualification is not eligible for any transfer credits. Applicants should not apply with such qualification(s).<\/p>

    Lists of qualifications which have been assessed by the University are available for reference. If a qualification is not on the lists, the qualification has not yet been assessed and therefore the TCV is not known yet.<\/p>

    Applicants may check the Information on local or overseas qualifications which have been assessed by the University for advanced standing\/credit exemption from the following list:<\/p>

    TCV for applications towards Master’s degree and Postgraduate Diploma Programmes<\/strong><\/a><\/p>

    Please note that the qualifications were assessed based on the normal mode of study of the qualification offered by the institutions concerned. The University may review the TCV of qualifications as and when necessary.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
