Recognition of credits in cases of transfers and second degrees

1. The CCLM (or similarly nominated commission) will evaluate requests for transfers and recognition of foreign degrees, and draw up a ranking list on the basis of passed exams (passed CFUs/required CFUs, expressed in tenths) adding up all the averages of conferred marks (average of obtained marks, expressed in tenths). Honours are not included in the average but can be taken into consideration if two candidates have an equal score.

2. Except for various situations, the CCLM recommends to the department committee recognition (or not) of credits and academic degrees given in other universities, including from exchange programmes. To recognise exams passed in courses other than Medicine and Surgery at the University of Turin, regarding transfer of students from another course or another university, the CCLM will recognise passed exams. The CCLM will specifically indicate the type of educational activity, disciplinary field, scientific sector and number of CFUs covered according to the academic rules. The CCLM will also decide which year of the course in which to insert the students, based on the number of passed exams. In the case of academically equivalent exams, this must be specifically pointed out, including a possible petition to the committee to verify the candidate's knowledge. Non-recognition must be explained. For students who come from the same course at another university, at least 50% of credits must be recognised.

3. The maximum number of recognisable credits is determined by the section on credits, in the course rules.

4. For exams which are not in the scientific-disciplinary field indicated in the course rules, or which exceed the limits in 2), at the request of the student, a maximum of eight credits can be recognised and entitled "Educational Activities of Student's Choice".

5. It will be possible to recognise "Other Educational Activities" (Ulteriori attività formative) (D. M. 270/04, art. 10, c. 5, d) for a maximum of five credits.

6. In the case of a student already possessing a degree of the same level, the recognition of credits will be, from case to case, considered and approved by the CCLM (or commission nominated with the task).
