Transfer Credit

Transfer Credit Conditions & Eligibility

The Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technologies (SIIT) supports the mobility of students from institution to institution through course credit transfer when eligibility requirements are satisfied. Students may be eligible to have some previous post-secondary work transferred for credit toward completion of their SIIT certificate or diploma. Transfer credit is awarded upon admission to SIIT. Detailed course outlines may be required for courses that have not been previously assessed for transfer credit by SIIT.

  • Applicants must be admitted to an SIIT program before requesting a transfer credit evaluation.
  • There is no fee to apply for transfer credit.
  • Course credits must be from a recognized post-secondary education institution within Canada, a member of Colleges and Institutes Canada or Universities Canada.
  • An official transcript from the sending institution must be sent directly to SIIT; additional documentation may be required such as a course outline.
  • Students may transfer up to 50% of a program’s courses, where applicable.
  • Course grade for approved transfer credit(s) will not be used in calculating grade point average (GPA) at SIIT. A “CG – Credit Granted” will appear on the student’s transcript.

Disclaimer: Not every program is eligible for transfer credit. Please contact an advisor for more information at advisor@siit.ca.

Full policy information can be found on page 27 of the Academic & Student Policy manual.

Alberta Transfer & Pathways

Alberta’s transfer system and learner pathways are led by institutions and organizations in Canada working together to recognize students previously completed post-secondary courses and programs. Transfer opportunities are shared publicly through the Transfer Alberta Search Tool, which is housed on Transfer Alberta Search. It contains searchable courses and program transfer decision information. This information is monitored and updated by member institutions.

Saskatchewan members are: Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technologies (SIIT), University of Regina, and Saskatchewan Polytechnic.
