If you have considerable work experience in the field or relevant professional credentials you are urged to discuss your situation with a faculty member prior to registering for classes. The Prior Learning Assessment portfolio is submitted to the Registrar’s Office for assessment by faculty. Your portfolio must include employers’ letters, diplomas, certificates, and/or transcripts. All materials in the portfolio must be clearly linked to the courses that you feel are the equivalent of your experience. Find more information.
You can also challenge for course credit if you cannot transfer credit, or if you cannot provide a portfolio for assessment. Challenges usually involve completing course assignments and examinations.
You can transfer a maximum of 50% of the credits required for any credential: certificate, diploma, or degree.
Learning is a lifelong experience. If your educational journey is about to begin, and you have been out of school for some time, you are considered a mature learner. Mature learners are admitted on a case-by-case basis. When you apply for admission, please include a statement of educational goals, a resume, transcripts from previous study, and any additional documentation of professional training or experience. You should include both volunteer and paid employment skills. An interview will be arranged with an academic advisor prior to admission to discuss your educational possibilities. For more information on admission for mature learners, refer to 2.1.4.3 Mature Admissions Policy for the Mount.
“As a mature student, I was quite nervous resuming my academic pursuit amidst the pandemic along with family and professional commitments. However, this was one of the best decisions that I have made, especially the decision to attend the MSVU. Without your guidance from the program planning, course registration, classroom instruction, to co-op experience (and everything else in between), my journey would not have been so seamless. For that, I am tremendously grateful.” – Michelle Nguyen
