Meanwhile, the transfer of credits to universities by diploma holders awaits approval. The credit transfer programme was put on hold last year after it emerged that universities were abusing it by enrolling unqualified students. AUDITThe CUE audit report released in February last year revealed that only eight out of 31 public universities had complied with the regulatory requirements on credit transfer. “Most universities did not have in place policies to guide credit accumulation and transfer system but they continued admitting students on credit transfer. "In most universities, the credit transfer was left to the relevant departments to apply their own discretion when granting transfers to students,” the report added.
