In the past, Anatomy and Physiology at UBC would have learning objectives significantly dissimilar from Anatomy and Physiology at Kwantlen. Thus, your cousins Kwantlen A&P would not fulfill the A&P prerequisite for UBC Med. By turning institutions like Kwantlen and UFV into universities the course structures were made much more similar and earned credits became more easily transferable to other universities. Consult closely with the BC Transfer guide when registering for courses and it's unlikely you'll have any issue, at this point. I have friends who experienced some minor difficulties transferring in the university college era, but in the university era none of my friends have had any issue.

He was in Kwantlen after it was a university. He just didnt get the grades to transfer. He worked really hard, was always studying yet didnt get in. I dont want to be in the same situation.
