requirements:
The applicant must meet Northern University's admission criteria
A certificate of good conduct and behaviour from the previous institution must be provided.

Course transfers are subject to the approval of the admission committee and the achievement of a
minimum acceptable GPA.
The student must meet the minimum residency requirement for the degree program they are transferring
into, typically 50% of the total program duration. However, the academic council may reduce this
requirement to 25% on a case-by-case basis.
The admission committee may allow the transfer of up to 50% of the credit requirements for the degree.

The grades of transferred courses will not count toward the CGPA at Northern University, but they will
appear on the transcript with a "T" next to them to indicate they are transfer credits.
Only grades earned from courses taken at Northern University will be used to calculate the CGPA. This
CGPA will also determine class rankings and eligibility for medals.
