Classes in the Fall and Spring semesters meet once each week for 14 weeks. These courses can typically be used toward the fulfillment of core course requirements at other institutions as well. Many courses require prerequisites. It is the student's responsibility to verify such information prior to registering for a course. The classroom experience is an important part of the educational experience being offered at TCI, and, as such, regular attendance is mandatory.
Attendance is taken into consideration when assigning grades.
Credits All but a few courses at TCI consist of 3 credits. Students who wish to earn a bachelor's degree need to complete a minimum of 120 undergraduate course credits. In certain cases, credits are transferable to or from other accredited institutions. Studies at certain Yeshivot and seminaries are accepted toward fulfillment of non-major credits. To receive transfer credits for work completed at another institution, students must arrange to have official transcripts submitted to the Registrar's office in New York.
