Students who are in satisfactory standing or better may request permission to take a course(s) at another university for credit toward their degree at the University of Waterloo. A maximum of five units can be obtained this way. Credit will be given only if the grade is 60.0% or higher and the "Letter of Permission Form" is approved by the School or Departmental Associate Chair, Undergraduate Studies, before taking each course. The "Letter of Permission Form " is available at www.registrar.uwaterloo.ca/forms/LetterOfPermission.pdf. Students should provide details of the course(s) to be taken, appropriate course descriptions and the reasons for the request. All courses taken on Letter of Permission will be recorded with a grade of CR and will not factor into average calculations. It will be the student's responsibility to ensure that an official transcript is sent to the Assistant Registrar, Applied Health Sciences, Needles Hall, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, N2L 3G1, within two months of the completion of the course(s).
Note
The granting of any Letter of Permission by the University of Waterloo does not necessarily ensure that the student will be able to enrol in the approved course at the other University. There may be restrictions on class enrolment etc., at that institution. Students should contact that institution's Registrar's Office for procedural details. Any changes to the original Letter of Permission course selection must be re-submitted for approval prior to completion of the course.
