Student exchanges
Would you like to complete part of your studies at another university in Québec? You can thanks to our inter-university agreement.
- A student from another Québec university (host university) may take courses at INRS and benefit from a maximum of transfer credits, which varies depending on the regulations of the home and the host universities.
- An INRS (home university) student may take courses at a recognized university if those courses fit into their program of study. Your student file must be in good standing with INRS before you make the transfer request.
Transfer requests are for regular students. You will receive an answer to your application a few days before the start of the semester in question. Find out more about the Agreement between Québec universities to approve studies at an external institution.
How to apply
You must fill in an inter-university transfer authorization form, have it approved by your program director, then submit it electronically to INRS’s Registrar’s Office and, if applicable, to the host university. The form can be accessed and downloaded from the Bureau de coopération interuniversitaire (BCI) website. Fill in the form
To help you with your application, two guides are available on the BCI’s website:
