    Did you transfer your credits? How did you do that?
    I study pharmacy and study is a 6 years study. I study by credit hours system. I want to apply for the Global Ugrad program as I see it will be so useful for me to benefit from academic life in the US. Meanwhile, I don't want to make my degree one year more in my home institution.
    How can I transfer my credits after finishing the semester in the US?

    • @NaomiNg
      @NaomiNg  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Osama, no, I did not transfer my credits simply because I didn't want to.
      Credits transfer mainly depends on your home university, as the requirements differ - eg. for me, my university required 70% similarity in syllabus in order to be approved for credit transfer. So, compare the syllabus of the US vs home universities and bring it to your faculty office to ask.
      I made a series of videos on Global UGRAD, here's a FAQ one where I answered about this topic too: ua-cam.com/video/KhSPr5B5bTU/v-deo.html

    Hello again Naomi,
    You have been a great help to me since the day I started my application. I wanted to ask you if it's okay to continue my undergrad course virtually in my home country's university if the university administration of my country permits me to do so. I could manage time for my studies for both U.S. course and the course of my undergrad program. Will there be any ethical consequences and inconveniences if me and my university administration is ready to do so?

    • @NaomiNg

      Hi there, I don't think studying concurrently in two universities would be an issue...although it doesn't sound like a good idea, considering you wouldn't have the time to fully experience time abroad. It's all up to you in the end anyway, good luck! :)

    Thank you for such informative video. I had two questions, the first one is I have already gave ielts exam so do I need to take tofel as well? And my second question is, as you’re already enrolled in any university of your home country, do you like leave the entire semester and study in us and then return back and continue your studies and graduation program after the completion of this program?

      2) I will make a video on my experience soon. But for an overview, watch this video I made previously: ua-cam.com/video/1H6ZEGixsI0/v-deo.html . I think around 250 students are selected per year.

      Hi Blunter's World, it makes sense if you have to defer one semester and extend your studies by one semester. Unless you want to do credit transfer by taking the same subjects in the US as the ones in your home university, then you wouldn't have to extend it. Do consult with your faculty adviser on credit transfer, as it differs by university.

You should upload all the transcripts available first. If you have additional after the application period, you could send to World Learning via email (if they request for it).
