Bachelor of Computer Science (C2001)

You can apply for credit for completed TAFE (Diploma level and above) and university level subjects. If you are granted credit, you will be awarded credit points towards the completion of your degree and you will not be required to complete those units. You can search online for previous credit decisions to give you an idea of what you may be granted.

VCE Algorithmics

If you have completed units 3 & 4 VCE Algorithmics (HESS), you are eligible for two units of credit (12 credit points): FIT1045 Introduction to programming and a level 1 FIT elective.

How to apply

You can submit your credit application and supporting documentation for assessment online before or after you enrol (AFTER you create your Monash computer account).

Along with your completed credit application, you must provide an academic transcript with the marks and grades of the study you have completed, as well as unit outlines which include detailed information on the list of topics studied, contact hours, texts and references, methods of assessment and learning outcomes. If you know which major/specialisation you plan to complete, please specify this in your application.

You don’t need to provide your results or unit outlines for any study undertaken at Monash or VCE Algorithmics (we have these already).

It is recommended that you submit your credit application as soon as possible as this will allow you plenty of time to change your enrolment prior to the start of semester if required.

You will be notified of the outcome of your application via email.

In the meantime, you can enrol in a standard enrolment to secure your place in the course. Your enrolment can be changed when your credit application has been processed.
