Use your previous HE study to help you gain an OU qualification
If you completed a three-year, full-time (or part-time equivalent) National Diploma awarded by NCEA or HETAC then we may be able to make an award of credit transfer. You should have completed the qualification within the last 16 years. We can consider this qualification for up to 120 credits at Level 1 and 120 credits at Level 2.
If you only completed part of the qualification then you may be eligible for credit transfer if you completed some of the study from years 2 or 3. We are unable to award for the first year of this qualification.
You will need to provide your original certificate and a transcript of your results. Depending on the qualification you have chosen you may also need to provide syllabus information.
