BACHELOR of ARTS – COMMUNICATION and MEDIA STUDIES Transfer to University of Calgary Red Deer College – School of Arts & Sciences Updated April 2021 BACHELOR OF ARTS – COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES Transfer to University of Calgary Red Deer College – School of Arts & Sciences Updated April 2021 What is this guide? This is an Academic Planning Guide, prepared by the School of Arts & Sciences to help you register for courses towards the Bachelor of Arts in Communication and Media Studies with University of Calgary. This guide is prepared using information gathered from RDC, Academic Calendars from Universities, and other resources and will only highlight major points related to transfer. o We strongly advise that you read the Academic Calendar of your destination institution for full information. Can you tell me about the BA in Communication and Media Studies at RDC? This BA program at RDC offers students the first 2 years of university transferable coursework towards University of Calgary’s BA in Communication and Media Studies. There are other BA Communication programs across the province, however, RDC’s program is best suited towards University of Calgary. Why can I only take two years at RDC? Every 30 credits (10 courses) a student completes is equivalent to one academic year. If a student completes 10 courses per year for four straight years (with appropriate course selection) they will graduate with their degree in four years. Universities have what is called a residency requirement. This means that universities require a specific amount of credits to be completed as their student in order to grant the degree. o UAlberta and UCalgary (and most universities), require a minimum of 60 credits to be completed while registered as a student of their institution. Therefore, students can transfer up to 60 credits towards their degree. What are terms, and how many of them are there? Terms are the period of time in which your studies take place. At RDC, we offer four terms. Fall term (September through December) Winter Term (January through April) Spring term (May through June): Spring term is a condensed term. We recommend only a maximum of two courses in the Spring. Course offerings are reduced in this term as well. Summer Term (July through August): Limited course selection. How many courses should I take a term? The traditional path you will see is 5 courses per term, 10 total (5 in the Fall, 5 in the Winter). Bachelor of Arts does offer flexibility in how a student schedules and pursues their degree. o Some students will complete 10 courses in a year by taking 4 courses in the Fall, 4 in the Winter, and 2 in the Spring (or some mixture). o Some students will take 3-4 courses per term (6-8 per year) and take 5-6 years to complete their degree. We encourage you to take a course load that works best for you. In most cases, to be considered for full time funding students need a minimum of 3 post-secondary courses and 9 academic credits in the Fall and Winter term. o Please check and confirm the course load requirements if you are receiving funding. What happens if I take less than 10 courses a year? You may need an extra term or year to complete your degree. What is a credit? A credit is what you earn for completing courses. To earn a BA from UAlberta or UCalgary, a student will need to earn 120 credits. Most courses a student completes will be three credits. There are some courses that span a full year (Fall to Winter) that are six credits. As such, 120 credits is generally 40 courses. How do I know what courses to take? Use this guide and use the advice! Make sure the courses you take are transferable using Transfer Alberta. You should be taking university level and university transferable courses o “200” Level courses are Year 1 courses at RDC o “300” Level courses are Year 2 courses at RDC o (each institution will use different numbering conventions for their years) 2 COURSE REGISTRATION AND SCHEDULING The schedule below is a recommended schedule which can be greatly customized depending on a student’s transfer institution, desired course load, and other factors.
