Taking courses at another university?


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I'm planning on taking a few courses at another university this summer. Some are for degree requirements, and others are just extra courses to boost my overall cGPA. I just wanted to confirm, will courses taken at another university on a letter of permission (and that are not specifically for degree requirements) be counted towards cGPA?

Thanks!

Pretty sure they will be counted, yes. Unless they're courses in a professional program (like teacher's college), any "degree-level" course counts towards your cGPA. I have a bunch of classes that were post-graduating (i.e. I didn't get a degree with them) but at the undergrad level that counted towards my cGPA while applying to Mac.

My understanding was that the key to getting your grades to be counted is having a full credit load. Correct me if I am wrong.

McMaster doesn't care how many credits you took in a semester, they just count everything.
