If a transcript is opened by someone other than the registrar, verification of its official status must be communicated. Official transcripts are accepted for evaluation of transfer credit. They may not be returned to students or copied for students. Only the Ottawa University transcript recording evaluated credit may be released to a student. If an official transcript lists previously evaluated transfer credit from another institution, the official transcript of that institution must also be supplied.
Credit is transferred only from the original source.
A transcript from each institution attended must be submitted to Ottawa University to ensure that the student s entire academic record is represented. Transcript evaluation is an on-going process. The registrar reviews transcripts for duplication and retaken courses throughout a student s program of study. A maximum of 80 credits of lower-division credit, generally 100 and 200 level courses, will apply toward the B.A. degree. A student may also apply up to 24 upper-division credits toward the B.A. degree.
