Or maybe you\u2019ve thought about returning to school after many years, and you wonder if any of your old courses from your first (or second or third) attempt at college might still work towards something after all these years. Maybe you\u2019re considering starting a program at a college to be close to home for a couple of years and then transfer to a university farther away to finish your program. Or possibly you attained a certificate at one institution and later you want to continue to do a diploma at another institution, and you want to see if your certificate can be used for entry into the diploma program. If you\u2019ve been wondering about any of these things, you will be happy to know that BC has an amazing transfer system. You will love the BC Transfer Guide!
