Request for Consideration of Taking Course at Another College/University

Once students enroll at Baptist College of Health Sciences, he or she is required to complete all remaining degree requirements at BCHS. In special circumstances, students may request that a course requirement be completed elsewhere. In order for these credits to be accepted by BCHS, prior permission from the appropriate academic dean must be received. A form is available in the Registrar's office and on-line for requesting such permission. Upon approval, a minimum grade of "C" must be earned and an official transcript received by BCHS, for transfer credit to be awarded and recorded on the official transcript.

Approval to take a course off-campus applies only to the academic term requested. If the student decides not to take a course as approved, the approval will become void and cannot be used for subsequent attempts without prior approval.

Students approved to take a course off-campus, must make a minimum grade of a "C". If a grade of "C" is not attained, the appropriate academic progression policy will apply by counting the grade earned as the first unsuccessful attempt of the course.

Upon completion of the off-campus course work, the student must have a transcript sent from the approved college by the end of the next academic term.
