Questions About My Acceptance

Q: Can I get back my original credentials (transcripts or diplomas/parchments), now that I've been accepted?

A: If your transcripts are Canadian, they become the property of the U澳门王中王论坛 澳门王中王论坛 Office and are not returned.

Original graduation diplomas/parchments from other institutions may be returned to the student. Please contact the 澳门王中王论坛 Office by email at admissions@uwinnipeg.ca to make arrangements. 

International students: You can request irreplaceable documents be returned to you once you have received an official Acceptance Email.  Contact the 澳门王中王论坛 Office (international) by email: intladmissions@uwinnipeg.ca
Please note, to return documents not requested by International 澳门王中王论坛, a courier fee will be charged.


Q. What about the transfer credits I earned at other schools?

A: If you were eligible for transfer credit, you would have received a transfer equivalency report with your acceptance letter, or check your Student History in .

If you see that certain course work did not transfer, there could be a number of reasons: you may have reached the transfer maximum (60 credit hours); your course work did not qualify for transfer credit; we didn't have a pre-established UW transfer equivalency for that course; or other reasons. 

To discuss your situation, contact the 澳门王中王论坛 Office at admissions@uwinnipeg.ca or phone 204.786.9159.  International applicants should email intladmissions@uwinnipeg.ca
You may be asked to submit course outlines (or syllabi) for your previous work - see


Q. What if I want to defer my admission?  Do I need to re-apply?

A: Your admission is valid for up to two start Terms from the Term on which you were first admitted.  For example, if you are accepted for Fall Term, you may start in that Fall Term or the Winter Term of that academic year.  Within that time frame, you will not need to re-apply. If you want to come the following Spring, you will have to re-apply or defer your offer of admission.

Deferral Process for Domestic Students: If you have been admitted to the Faculties of Arts, Business, Kinesiology or Science and would like to defer your offer of admission for one year, you will need to contact the 澳门王中王论坛 Office for a deferral form.  We will then keep your application open so that you can register without re-applying.  If you attend another post-secondary institution you will need to submit that official transcript before you will be allowed to register the following year. A deferral of admission can only be done once and is only valid for one year.   For more information, please email Domestic 澳门王中王论坛 Office at admissions@uwinnipeg or call 204.786.9159.

Note: Students admitted into the Faculty of Education cannot defer their offer of admission. They must submit a new application each year.

Q. Can I receive academic recognition for what I’ve learned through work and life experiences? 

Find out through Recognition of Prior Learning. It is an educational initiative that provides learners with opportunities to identify, demonstrate and gain recognition for what they already know and can do. It is for learners who have significant learning through work and life experiences, including military service. This learning may be deemed appropriate to meet admissions requirements or be equivalent to university-level credit. For more information, see .
