  • Transferability

    NVIT has successfully negotiated transferability of many of its
    courses with most colleges, institutes and universities in BC. For a full listing of transferable courses students are advised to refer to theBCCAT Transfer Guide, online version www.bctransferguide.ca
    In BC, post secondary institutions guarantee credit for courses or programs completed at other institutions, provided that they are
    listed in the BC Transfer Guide. Students may also be able to receive transfer credit for other courses not listed in the Guide, but will have to inquire individually for them. All the BC institutions that
    participate in the transfer process are listed in the Guide. Students can determine how courses will transfer to other institutions by searching the online Transfer Guide at www.bctransferguide.ca
    Students can attend NVIT and earn credits toward a university degree in a variety of disciplines. Students who are planning
    to transfer to another institution need to be fully aware of the requirements of that institution. For more information contact one of the Academic Planners.
