Course exemptions avoid unnecessary duplication of prior educational experience and are granted for courses already completed at Universities, Colleges or other select organizations. Each program has a limit to the number of course exemptions that will be granted. Students can apply for an exemption in writing by completing an Exemption Request Form. Exemptions are subject to a non-refundable Administrative Fee. Students who are denied exemption will not be charged additional exemption fees. Exemptions are reflected in students’ files in the Academic History section under Course Exemptions Granted.

5 - Year Rule
Academic Exemptions may be denied for courses that do not meet the 5 - year currency rule. Students looking for exemptions for certain core courses leading up to a CSI designation /certificate (taken either with CSI or a different institute) must ensure that the course(s) were completed less than 5 years prior to application. If you'd like a list of courses for which the currency rule applies please email us at customer_support@csi.ca
