I have chosen centennial college as my point of entry in Canada. However, I would like to move to a university after completing my pg diploma.

My question is... will the universities accept some credit transfers from this diploma? like if i apply for a masters..

Note i already have a bachelor and a masters in comp science from Calcutta University. and I have an exp of 3 years in IT.

It is unlikely that a university in Canada would accept transfer credits for a masters from a college diploma. However each university sets its own policies with regards to transfer credits. For this reason it would be best if you contacted the university you are interested in attending to ask this question.

Actually sir if you had done with your bachelors and masters so why so are doing your diploma and bachelors again?
I mean there was not any way to get direct admission to Masters on the basis of your Bachelors degree it will really save your time and money too?
I know it is some kind of personal question but it will really help me in future, hope u won't mind and got ma question...
Hope i'll get my answer in every aspect...

first of all, what is yr objective to enter centennial college or any college for that matter? 2ndly, why dont u apply to enter university for masters program instead if yr GPA is good enough, unless yr GPA doesnt allow u to enter any masters program or do u not wish to enter a masters program? 3rdly, what is yr objective to get a PG diploma or degree from Canada?
