For Students With Advanced Standing (Transfer Credits) › For students granted advanced standing, you will need to view the academic calendar for course descriptions and particular program requirements: westerncalendar.uwo.ca. › If you are transferring from another university, you must submit all previous course descriptions to Enrolment Services at King’s at least two weeks prior to your scheduled SAO appointment. We will endeavour to check for course equivalencies in order to ensure an effective academic counselling process. › It is important to come to your appointment with some idea of courses you wish to take. Please read the academic calendar. If you have fewer than 5.0 courses awarded at the first year level (numbered 1000 - 1999), please review the summary of year one courses and have a list of possible selections. › If you are thinking about professional programs (i.e. Social Work, Education) or graduate school, please be advised that there may be specific pre-requisites. Be sure to check with your academic counsellor › In order to receive a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in any discipline(s), there are certain academic requirements that must be met. It is your responsibility to be aware of these, so please review Western's Academic Calendar and King's program checklists frequently to become familiar with the requirements of your degree/module and subject area (or program).
