ABOUT OUR CREDIT SYSTEM

Why Do We Apply the Credit System in Our Programs?

ELGA Schools’ credit system is applied to provide the chance for its graduates to pursue their study for a higher degree like a BSc., Master, or a PhD in a university after they finish their studies at ELGA Schools. Students can submit a transcript of their attended ELGA Schools program grades, credits, and topics to the University for a Credit transfer. most universities require that the applicant submit such documents to be accepted for a graduate degree 

What is the Credit System of an ELGA Schools' Program and/or Course?

One ELGA Schools program and/or credit hour is equivalent to one hour of a student's practice during a program/course, additional credit hours are also calculated for the work the student spend in preparing his/her graduation portfolio, attending the graduation exam, submitting final reports, and any other graduation requirements.

Academic Load

In general, the regular weekly academic load of a standard ELGA Schools course is: three sessions per week, three hours per session, making a total of nine hours per week, this is in addition to the designated mid-course examinations, graduation projects, portfolio making, and other graduation requirements. 

How Can You Calculate Your ELGA Schools' Credit Value?

Example 

If you are enrolled in any ELGA Schools course where you attended three sessions during this week, and the duration of each session was three hours. Then, your total credit hours will be equal to the number of sessions you attended multiplied by the total number of hours of all sessions, plus the total credit value calculated from the rest of the work you prepared for your graduation requirements.

Calculation

In the given example; your accumulated total credit hours will be equal to: 

(3) Sessions X (3) Hours per Session 

= (9) Credit Hours + Graduation Requirements Credit Hours 

Calculated in the same manner for the number of hours you spent in your final exam, preparation of your graduation portfolio, and any other graduation requirements if any.
