However, it is recommended that you refer to the course information on edX for latest updates regularly before and during enrolment of course for any updates made by the partner institution.

You are encouraged to screenshot the suggested number of Units for future reference, and cross check with course information on edX.org before upgrading to verified track.

Only edX courses that you've passed will show up on EduRec within 1 week after completion.

The CS50 MOOC records will show up under the “New Application (via Canvas)” function of the DYOC (edX) page on EduRec within 1 week upon completion.

Alternatively, students may use the “New Application (Other MOOCs)” function to apply for credit transfer and reimbursement for the completed CS50 edX course. Students will be required to enter the necessary MOOC details, which can be obtained through Canvas or edX website (e.g. Course duration in weeks, min and max efforts per week, MOOC price in USD). The MOOC ID and Course Key can be obtained from the Course URL. An example of the MOOC details to be input is available in the ‘User Guide on EduRec Submission for Completed DYOC MOOCs’ (Part 2b). Please check out the user guide on student portal: https://myportal.nus.edu.sg/studentportal/eservices/all/user-guides/UserGuide-Submit-DYOC(MOOC)-Application.pdf

EduRec stores all the edX courses that you've passed (both audit and verified track). If the host institution of that course designed the grading to allow "Pass" on audit track and you passed before paying, it will show as 0 USD on EduRec. 

edX courses on Canvas are synced daily to display active courses with current or upcoming course runs. For example, archived courses or Professional Education courses will not show up on Canvas. 

If you see this error message when enroling from Canvas, it is because these courses do not have audit enrolments. You may choose to go to edX.org to pay the verified certificate in order to access the course contents.
