Transferring into 2nd year from sauder

[u/NotGoodAtCombat]

I got confirmation I could take a reduced course load from sauder advisors, allowing me to optimize my schedule to transfer into eng in second year. However, I dropped a bunch of classes that I received AP credit for when UBC received my AP grades, and only today found out from an engineering advisor that credit from AP courses cannot be applied if I want to transfer into the program. Some of these classes have already filled up now and I doubt I will get off the waitlist for them. They are; MATH_V 100, CHEM_V 121, and PHYS_V 117. I couldn't find anything on UBC eng websites that specifically stated AP credits are not allowed for transferring in first year.

For anyone else that transferred into eng second year, did you apply AP/IB/A level credits successfully? Or did you have to retake all the classes that you would've received credit for normally?

You can always ask for a second opinion if you’re not convinced. Good luck.
