Admission Equivalency:

  • This course can be used to satisfy Durham College’s (DC) admission requirement for Grade 12 English.
  • Many DC programs require a communication course. If this credit is deemed equivalent to the communication course in the program you are pursuing, it may be transferred to reduce your course load. To ensure the course is equivalent, please contact the Faculty responsible for your program.
  • Note, program and semester fees for full-time studies generally remain unchanged even if a course is successfully transferred for credit. However, decisions to drop this or any other course may affect your overall course load, which can have implications for both tuition fees and OSAP eligibility. For guidance on how course load changes may impact fees, students should consult the Office of the Registrar. For OSAP advice, students should consult Financial Aid.
