The Admissions Committee in the Faculty of Mathematics may change the course equivalency guide without notification.
Students must attain a minimum grade of C in a course in order to receive transfer credit consideration. Grades earned in transferred courses will not be used in calculating your Waterloo cumulative average.

Students transferring into the Faculty of Mathematics are eligible to receive a maximum of 10.0 units of transfer credits. To be eligible for co-op, at the time of admission students will have successfully completed no more than 3.0 units of math transfer credits and between 4.0 and 6.0 units of transfer credits in total.
