Letter of Permission

A Letter of Permission is a document that allows you to take one or more courses at another university as a visiting student and transfer the credit(s) towards your degree at 澳门六合彩开奖预测. Students must apply to the academic advising office of their faculty for a Letter of Permission to take courses at another university (note the non-refundable fee charged by the Registrar's Office) and must be submitted before you register at the other university. If you take a course without requesting a Letter of Permission, you may have to apply for re-admission to this university.

Please note that you will not be approved to take an online course at another institution if it is being offered online at 澳门六合彩开奖预测 during the same session. For example, if Bio 2244A/B is offered at 澳门六合彩开奖预测 in the summer term online you can not take it at Queen's University online.

Courses requested from International universities

Approvals for Letter of Permission requests from International universities not affiliated with 澳门六合彩开奖预测’s exchange and study abroad partners can be challenging due to our unfamiliarity with these institutions. Requests for courses at these institutions must be vetted carefully to ensure consistency and congruency with the learning outcomes for our courses. As such, a detailed course syllabus for each course you have requested must be submitted to the relevant Department for approval. Course syllabi should include the following: course title and description, number of course hours/credit weight, textbooks required, methods of evaluation being used and their weight, along with a detailed course schedule. You must also demonstrate that the course can be found easily from the homepage of the institution offering it. Departmental approval of a course must be granted before our office is able to consider your request for a Letter of Permission at an International institution.
