STUDENTS of the Open Learning Institute (OLI) with previous mainland Chinese degree qualifications are now eligible to apply for credit transfers to their OLI programmes under the institute's new advanced standing policy.

Under the policy, recognised mainland Chinese degree qualifications are now put on a par with all recognised local and overseas degrees. A maximum of 80 transferred credits is permitted for an honours degree programme of the OLI and 60 for an ordinary degree.

The success of the application and the exact credit value allowed for transfer will be determined by the institute based on, among other things, the standard of the Chinese qualification.

Applicants can expect the total number of credits they must complete at the OLI to be reduced, but no specific course will be exempted.
