Under certain conditions, students can independently carry out and automatic transfer of academic credit for course examinations from one major to another in the KUSSS.
Under certain conditions, immediate academic credit transfer can be carried out in KUSSS (menu item "Übertragung").
If you are actively enrolled in a degree program and the curriculum requires courses (the same course classes) that you have already successfully passed for another major (degree program number) you are/were enrolled in at the JKU, you can conduct an immediate transfer of academic credit. This process does not affect the original examination.
Please note: At this time, the process can only be used to get credit for examinations that have not been previously used for credit transfer.
Example: Student A is enrolled in both Business Education (Major No. 170) and Business & Economics (Major No. 033/572). The student successfully passed the course "Accounting" [course class =572BWEFBUHK15] under Major No. 170. This course class is included in both the curriculum for Business Education as well as for the curriculum in Business & Economics.
Once the same course class is included in one or more curricula, the formal and substantive examination is omitted. Official notification and approval is therefore not required.
Please note: Apply to AUWEA NG for academic credit for courses that include writing a Bachelor's thesis.
