Confederation College students have the opportunity to continue their education and transfer to other post-secondary institutions across Canada and Australia.

Confederation College has agreements in place that permit credits that are earned in certain programs to be transferred to programs at other colleges and universities. This allows our students to gain advanced standing in a wide variety of programs.

University degree graduates also have the opportunity to come to college to apply their learning. Agreements also apply to high school students moving to college to recognize the learning that has occurred.

Use the interactive interface below to explore the articulation agreements between Confederation College and a number of universities.

NOTE: With the changing nature of education and training programs, and the right of institutions to alter their agreements and policies, you are advised to contact the appropriate Admissions Office at the partner institution and with our college to ensure that the provisions stated below are still supported by our college and partner institutions.

Additional information on collaborative programs, articulation agreements and credit transfer between Ontario universities and colleges is available on the Ontario College University Transfer website at www.ontransfer.ca.
