This page provides you with detailed information about Recognition of Prior Learning for UTS Science courses.

Recognition of prior learning will not be granted for subjects taken more than five (5) years prior to your first session of study in the relevant UTS Science’s course, unless there is evidence through work experience that the knowledge has remained current.

You are to apply for recognition of prior learning before enrolling in your first session of study. Recognition of prior learning will only be granted in exceptional circumstances after this time.

Previously acquired credentialed learning may only be counted once as approved recognition of prior learning for any course offered by UTS. Therefore, you should take note that recognition of prior learning given in one course at UTS, will not necessarily be transferred to another course at UTS after a successful course transfer.

For more information, please refer to the following UTS webpages:
