Credit Hours
Your AMCAS application will automatically convert most undergraduate credit hours (also known as units, hours, etc.) to either semester hours or supplemental hours based on conversions provided by the institutions.
Indicate your credit hours or units EXACTLY as they appear on your transcript even though the field does not have a red asterisk (*). Do not attempt to enter conversions based on the Grade Conversion Guide or any other conversion method.
If no hours appear on the official transcript, leave this item blank unless these credits have been removed as a result of failure, repeat, academic bankruptcy, forgiveness, or similar institutional policy, in which case grades and credits should be entered as they originally appeared.
Keep in mind:
Most Canadian schools grant three (3) semester hours for a half-year course and six (6) semester hours for a full- year course.
Courses with labs may be assigned different credits than other standard courses at the institution.
