Advanced Credit (AP, IB or A-Level)

If you have completed university-level courses while in high school, you may be able to receive advanced credits. Find out which AP, IB or A-Level courses are eligible for first-year credits at UBC.

How to apply AP, IB or A-Level credits to the BASc Program 

It is recommended that you complete the Chemistry, Math and Physics courses in the first year even if you have received advanced credits from AP, IB or A-Level for these courses. The first-year engineering program is designed to build a strong foundation and enable your success in your upper-level courses. 

If you proceed and complete a course with a final grade for which you have already received credits from AP, IB or A-Level, the UBC attempt will supersede the credits granted from AP, IB or A-Level.  

If you decide to proceed and drop a course from your timetable after having received UBC credits from AP, IB or A-Level, you do not need to do anything further. The credits will apply automatically towards your degree requirements where applicable. A percentage grade is not assigned to these credits.

For second year placement, the average is calculated on courses attempted at UBC in the Winter Session only. Your AP, IB or A-Level credits will apply to the number of credits you have, to determine your eligibility to be promoted to a second year standing. 

IMPORTANT:

  • Do not drop courses from your timetable until you see the credits on your SSC Transfer Credit page. You have until the course drop deadline to drop courses without a Withdrawal (‘W’) standing on your academic record
