IB Transfer Credits
Hi guys

I'm in third year life sci, and completed the IB program with a level 5 in HL English. For those who have gotten transfer credits in the past, how many English courses at Mac do the transfer credits count towards? Thanks!

Does it show up on your transcript? If so, do you know if you get a mark for it, or is it pass/fail?

I thought that I should also mention that you can only have a certain number of first year courses, so take that into consideration when you ask for your transfer credits! I think its 48 units.. but I'm not 100% sure on that number.

Good luck!
