Transfer Credits

Transfer Credits

Transfer Credits:

The transfer credit standards at Emmanuel Bible College and Seminary (EBCAS) set forth clear guidelines for how transfer credits from other institutions will be evaluated. Below is a breakdown of the key points:

1

Official Transcript Submission

      • The student must have their previous school send an official, sealed transcript directly to the administration at EBCAS for evaluation.

2

Evaluation of the Institution's Quality

EBCAS will objectively assess the quality of the previous institution based on various factors, including:
      • Review of the student’s course syllabus and class notes.
      • Information is available in listings of colleges and universities.
      • Communication with the institution itself and others who are familiar with it.

3

Grade Requirements for Transfer

      • Courses with a grade of “A” or “B” will be considered for full transfer of credit.
      • Courses with a grade of “C” may be considered for partial or full credit, depending on the circumstances and the course content.
– Credit Conversion:   Courses are typically measured in semester credits, but they will be converted to quarter units at EBCAS: -1 semester unit = 1.5 quarter units.

4

Course Equivalency and Transfer Credit

Direct Equivalents: Courses that directly match EBCAS courses will transfer fully.   Similar Courses: Courses that are similar to EBCAS courses may transfer, but partial credit may be awarded. Related Courses: Even if courses differ from EBCAS offerings, they may transfer for partial or full credit if they are deemed relevant and contribute toward the specific degree being pursued.

5

Minimum Residency Requirement

At least one-fourth (25%) of the units required for the degree or certificate must be earned directly at EBCAS, ensuring a significant portion of the student’s education is completed at the institution.

6

Final Decision by the Administration

The decision made by the Transfer Administration will be final, and no further appeals or reviews will be entertained after the committee’s determination.

Summary of Key Considerations:

      • Official Transcript: Must be submitted directly from the previous institution.
      • Grades: “A” and “B” grades are most likely to transfer, with “C” grades considered on a case-by-case basis.
      • Credit Conversion: Semester credits are converted to quarter units.
      • Course Equivalency: Direct equivalents transfer fully; similar courses may transfer with partial credit.
      • Residency Requirement: 25% of the credits must be earned at EBCAS.
      • Committee Decision: The decision on transfer credit is final.
These guidelines ensure that transfer credits are evaluated fairly and consistently. If you need assistance in understanding how your specific courses might transfer or how to submit your transcripts, feel free to ask!
