This form is to be used by prospective and current Monash
University students when applying for credit, which includes
either credit transfer for previous study or Recognition of Prior
Learning (RPL).
Monash College students should not use this form.
General information
This application for credit is only for the current course you are
applying to or are enrolled in (as listed in Section B). If you apply for
admission to a new course, you will need to submit a new application
for credit.
When applying for credit transfer, an original or certified copy of your
academic results and unit syllabus (units synopsis, assessment,
number of hours, textbooks used) for the year the unit was studied is
required for all studies not completed at Monash University.
You will receive written notification from your faculty regarding the
outcome of your credit application. Applicants should enrol in units with
the assumption that credit has not been granted until notified
otherwise.
Credit policy and procedures
For the university policy on Credit (including Recognition of Prior
Learning), see:
www.policy.monash.edu/policy-
bank/academic/education/admissions/credit-policy.html
For the university procedures for credit transfer, see:
www.policy.monash.edu/policy-
bank/academic/education/admissions/credit-procedures.html
Faculties may also have specific faculty policies on credit
transfer and RPL. Please refer to Faculty websites and
handbooks for relevant faculty policies.
Application processing
Applications for credit transfer will normally be assessed within
ten working days where there are current precedents. A longer
period may be required if a new assessment is required,
particularly at peak admission and enrolment times.
Applications for recognition of prior learning will normally be assessed
within 20 working days. Where full assessment is required, a longer
period may be required particularly at peak admission and enrolment
times.
Types of credit that may be granted:
• Specified credit: Credit for specific Monash University units as
identified by their unit code.
• Discipline-specific credit: Credit that is specified only by credit
point value, level and discipline, but not by unit codes. That is, the credit
is identified as being within the discipline, but not as equivalent to any
specific unit. Thus it may contribute to completion of major, minor or
sequence requirements but may not stand in place of a core unit.
• Unspecified credit: Credit that is specified only by credit point value
and level, and which can only contribute to course completion by
standing in place of elective units.
• Exemption: Where, on the basis of previous similar study, a student
is waived the requirement to pass a core unit, but in its place is required
to complete another unit of the same credit point value.
• Block credit: Involves credit being granted for a whole section of
a course such as a semester or year of full-time study in the
course, rather than for specific units.
• Recognition of prior learning (RPL): An assessment
process that assesses the individual's non-formal and informal
learning to determine the extent to which that individual has
achieved the required learning outcomes, competency outcomes, or
standards for entry to, and/or partial or total completion of, a
qualification.
