The credit transfer committee is a committee under the study board. The committee makes decisions on credit transfer cases that require academic expertise and for which there is no precedent. The committee is supported by the academic administration at the Faculty of Social Sciences. The committee deals with cases on an ongoing basis through written consultations. If a recommendation from the committee will have serious consequences for the student’s enrolment, the case will subsequently be referred to the study board.
Applications for credit transfer and exemptions must be submitted using the relevant forms on the study pages for the bachelor’s programme and master’s programme on KUnet (links in Danish).
