Validation for Advanced Credits
Advanced credits for courses taken outside the University may be granted upon passing the prescribed validation examination.
Admitted undergraduate transfer students must validate all the courses they are offering for advanced credits at the rate of at
least 18 units a semester from the date of their admission. Their admission will be on a probationary basis until all subjects taken outside
UP which are required for their program have been validated or repeated, in accordance with the rule on validation of courses. Students
will not be allowed to enroll in a subject, the prerequisites of which, taken elsewhere, have not been validated, or repeated, as the case
may be.
Students transferring from any recognized institution who possess an Associate in Arts or its equivalent of 66 units of work
may be enrolled without validation, provided they have a general weighted average of 2.0 or better. Before a student is allowed to major
in any discipline, however, the major discipline may prescribe additional courses of up to 18 units of general education courses and/or
preparatory courses for the major.
