How does OTHM, QUALIFI & ATHE Credits appear in Transcript - ZenD - 01-11-2026
Need a clarification from those who had completed British Degree Top-Up using Level 5 or 4 Diplomas from Qualifi, OTHM & ATHE.
In the DEGREE TRANSCRIPT, how this Diplomas will be mapped out as a completed course. I mean what will be written in the column titled Module Name for year 1 and 2 .
Will be grateful if someone who already own a transcript cover this. Thank you.

Hi ZenD,
In most UK Top-Up degree cases, the university transcript does not break down Qualifi/OTHM/ATHE modules individually under Year 1 and Year 2. Instead, those years are usually recorded as:
120 credits at Level 4 – awarded via RPL / Advanced Standing
120 credits at Level 5 – awarded via RPL / Advanced Standing
The transcript primarily reflects the modules studied during the final Top-Up year (Level 6), since that is the portion delivered and assessed by the university itself.

That said, some universities may internally map the diploma modules to equivalent university modules, but this mapping is often not fully itemized on the final transcript.

Hi Ainban,
Thank you for the detailed explanation. I have a better idea on this now.

Hi ZenD, I can share that my UK BSc (Hons) Top up currently is showing RPL for Years 1 and 2 on the unofficial transcipts on the University login.
I can always show my Qualifi Level 5 Extended Diploma and Transcripts which list all modules and Pass marks for more granularity if needed.
