Separate co-op and transfer routes

Computer Studies lists a co-operative education option, while the regular diploma page does not promise a placement or employment result. Confirm whether you are applying to the co-op program and what work-term or academic conditions apply.

Langara’s Computer Studies material says graduates can enter information technology or continue to a university, but this is general pathway guidance rather than a guaranteed transfer. The BC Transfer Guide is the appropriate starting point for checking a specific course and receiving institution; ask the destination institution to confirm current admission and credit conditions for your credential and courses.

CCWIL, C3 and career preparation

Langara renamed its Co-op and Career Development Centre in September 2026. It is now the Centre for Career and Work-Integrated Learning (CCWIL). Its services extend beyond students enrolled in a co-op option: use the C3 Job Board, career workshops and application-support resources while planning your next step. The centre connects students with resources and employers; it does not guarantee an offer.

Current career workshops cover resumes, cover letters, job search, LinkedIn, informational interviews and interview preparation. Online sessions require registration. Resume reviews use first-come access: online reviews are limited to one person and 30 minutes, while the current schedule lists in-person drop-ins in C Building, room C121. Bring your resume on paper or a laptop and check the current schedule.

Check the placement and receiving institution

For Computer Studies co-op, the published admission conditions include at least nine program credits, a 2.6 GPA each term, an employability interview and a C or better in EXPE 2300. Ask the program or CCWIL about the work-term sequence and available opportunities before arranging housing or leaving another job. Completing admission conditions is different from securing a placement.

For university transfer, start with the exact Langara course code, the year completed and the intended receiving institution in the BC Transfer Guide. Check the receiving institution’s policies for minimum grades, course-age limits and whether the credit satisfies its program admission or graduation requirements. Institutions may request course outlines, transcripts and their own assessment forms. If your destination is absent from the search tool, contact it directly about credit assessment.

Decision checklist

Separate the regular diploma from the co-op option.
