Application for Credit Recognition/Cross-credits from study at Unitec or other Tertiary Institutions in NZ or Overseas – Instructions for Form SAF 005

Guidelines for Credit recognition / Cross-credits Please note:

The maximum credits ever granted is half a programme, but the actual credits granted will vary according to individual assessment, as credits are based on how similar your previous courses are to Unitec’s courses. If you want to apply for cross-credits, you need to: » Obtain detailed course descriptions (in English) from the previous institution you studied at » Complete the Application for Credit Recognition/Cross-credits (online or in the International Prospectus) » Please apply for credits at least two months before the semester begins; do not leave it too late as the process can take 2-3 months, and credits approved more than two weeks after the semester begins will not affect your enrolment (ie you will not be able to withdraw from the courses or apply for a refund due to the credits). Credit applications received less than two months before the semester begins may not be assessed in time, and applications received less than one month in advance will not be assessed in time. Note: If the previous qualification is from New Zealand – Please take these items to any Student Central office on campus. (If you are in your final semester, bring your results so far, plus confirmation of the courses you are currently enrolled in. Provisional assessment can be made on this basis; your final results will be required to confirm any credits provisionally granted.) If the previous qualification is from a country other than New Zealand – Please apply through the International Office; email the credit application form and course outlines as pdf or Word documents if possible as this allows faster assessment than hard copies.

STEP 2: SUBMIT THIS FORM with the International Student Application Form (there is no payment required with the form) Please post, deliver or courier The completed SAF005 Cross-credit form and the other documents listed above, securely attached To: Unitec, International Office, 139 Carrington Road, Mt Albert, Auckland 1025, New Zealand or by mail to Private Bag 92025, Victoria St West, Auckland 1142, New Zealand.
