Credit Transfer

The University of Multimedia recognises students by Beta, Gamma and Delta levels which are defined as below:

  • Beta students : Students who have completed 40 credit hours and below.
  • Gamma students : Students who have completed 41 to 80 credit hours.
  • Delta students : Students who have completed 81 credit hours and above.

Policy for Credit Transfer

  • Normally only subjects at Beta level can be considered for credit transfer.
  • It is normally done within the first 2 weeks of the first trimester when the students first registered with the Faculty.
  • It is evaluated on a case to case basis.
  • For students with a Diploma: The diploma must be of at least 2 years in duration after SPM, and students must have completed and be awarded the Diploma.
  • More than one subject done during the diploma course can be combined to request for credit transfer of an equivalent subject in MMU. The syllabus of the subjects must cover a minimum of 70% of MMU syllabus and that all the subjects for consideration must have a minimum of B (as per the Faculty's standard); and any subject in the diploma course can only be used once for the purpose of credit transfer to one MMU subject.
  • The decision of the Faculty is final and the credit transfer is recommended by the Credit Transfer Committee and approved by the Dean.

Procedures

  • Each student who wishes to be considered for credit transfer must fill in the Credit Transfer Form.
