💡Expert's Take
Alberta's IB transfer credit table contains no Mathematics row of any kind, so there is nothing published to rely on in either direction, because UAlberta's IB transfer credit table contains no Mathematics row at all. The University Calendar still carries mathematics entries, but they stop at syllabuses taken before 2021, which predate both Analysis and Approaches and Applications and Interpretation. Alberta has simply never added the current courses.
Two things follow. First, a STEM applicant gets no calculus exemption here and will take first-year calculus alongside everyone else, which is unusual among Canadian universities. Second, the asymmetry with AP is stark: AP Calculus AB and BC both earn MATH 114 in the same official handbook. The documented alternative is Credit by Special Assessment, which Alberta offers to students with appropriate qualifications; it is the route to ask an advisor about, not an entitlement.
