💡Expert's Take
Alberta draws no distinction between the two IB mathematics courses, because it recognises neither. Its IB transfer credit table has no Mathematics row at all, and the Calendar's surviving mathematics entries cover only syllabuses taken before 2021, which predate Applications and Interpretation entirely.
Students often assume Analysis and Approaches will be treated more generously than Applications and Interpretation. UAlberta publishes no Mathematics row of any kind on its IB transfer credit table, so neither approval nor refusal can be read from it, so the choice between them carries no transfer-credit consequence here. If you want first-year mathematics recognised, the documented path is Credit by Special Assessment rather than transfer credit, and it is worth raising with an advisor before registration.
