Does University of Toronto give transfer credit for IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches HL?

What to watch for:

• UTSC plus Computer Science is the one case where claiming the credit can cost you. The UTSC table states these credits cannot be used for admission into any Computer Science program, and the CS Major requires MATA31H3 and MATA37H3, each of which lists your awarded courses as exclusions. UTSC's stated rule is that a student who has received transfer credit for a course listed as an exclusion cannot take the described course and receive a credit. Weigh forfeiting before you enrol.
• UTM changed its entry maths for Fall 2026 entrants. Every pathway into the CS Major from Fall 2026 onward requires MAT139H5 or MAT159H5, and the department directs anyone interested in Computer Science, Mathematical Sciences or Applied Statistics to take MAT137H5 with MAT139H5, or MAT157H5 with MAT159H5. MAT139H5 lists MAT136H5 as an exclusion. That same entry rule counts 4.0 U of T credits explicitly excluding transfer credits, so this award does not advance you toward the threshold. Your credit still counts toward the Major's first-year completion requirements if you entered the program in 2026-27 or earlier; from 2027-28 those requirements move to the proof-based pair.
• At St. George the credit helps you finish Computer Science, not enter it. Guaranteed entry from the CMP1 admission category is earned by completing specified calculus at U of T, which a transfer credit cannot stand in for, and the supplementary-application route into the Major sets no calculus requirement at all. The Calendar and the department's own CMP1 page currently list different accepted calculus options, so confirm the requirement with the Computer Science Undergraduate Office rather than either page alone.
• Setting the credit aside works differently by campus, and Arts & Science is the permissive one. A&S states you may take a course that lists your equivalent as an exclusion and receive degree credit for it, so choosing proof-based calculus there costs you nothing. UTSC accepts forfeit requests until October 31, 2026, only from students with no prior post-secondary study, both half credits together and with no reinstatement. UTM instead lets a student attending university for the first time mark the credit Extra, by May 31, 2027 for September 2026 admits: it then carries no credit weight, may be used toward the Distribution Requirement and in some cases toward program and prerequisite requirements, and again applies to both half credits together with no reinstatement. None of this starts until your results arrive directly from the IBO, a July 31, 2026 deadline at both UTM and UTSC.
