Dear Students,
Please note the following excerpt from page 38 of the 2022/23 Undergraduate Student Handbook.
“The granting of exemptions (and credits) for non-UWI programmes must be based on equivalency to courses in each degree option. If a course, already completed successfully, is the same as that to be pursued at a particular level, a student may receive exemption from that course. In keeping with The UWI’s policy, exemptions (and credits) will only be granted for courses that have been successfully pursued within the last five (5) years. Credit exemptions do not count towards the GPA.”
The exemption requests forms and other important forms can be found on the Student Portal (log into the Portal, navigate to the Student Resources tab).
For guidance on exemptions and the process, please write to student.services@open.uwi.edu
Queries on Course Exemptions
1. I am kindly asking for the approved exemption listing please. I cannot seem to find it anywhere.
2. When I was at UWI Mona Campus I completed the course FOUN 1014 Critical Reading and Writing in Science and Technology and Medical Science. Do I still have to do FOUN 1001 English for Academic Purposes and FOUN 1501 Foundation for Learning Success?
