12. TRANSFERRING THE CREDITS<br />
In June 1994 the board of the University of<br />
<strong>Oulu</strong> accepted the instructions on how to include<br />
studies from other higher educational institutions<br />
into a degree in the University of <strong>Oulu</strong>. The<br />
instructions define the principles of compensation.<br />
The basis is that studies at a foreign university are<br />
accepted into the degree as fully as possible. In<br />
order to guarantee this it is of utmost importance<br />
that students get the approval of their home<br />
deparmtent for their study plan aborad. Studentds<br />
may need to modify the plan due to changes in the<br />
host university’s courses. These changes should<br />
also be approved by the home university.<br />
It is the students’ responsibilty to assure that<br />
they bring with them all the possible material<br />
concerning the courses they have finished during<br />
their exchange: course outlines, essays, learning<br />
journals, examinations, etc, and a transcript of<br />
records that show the credit and grade awarded<br />
from each course.This way the transferring the<br />
credits is as simple as possible.<br />
