Course must have been done within the last seven years. If older than seven years, courses must be approved by departments involved. Credit is not transferred for a thesis. There is one exception, and that is in the case of a student completing two degrees at the same level at Asbury Seminary, in which case the Cumulative GPA for the first degree is entered as the GPA for all hours accepted toward advanced standing. The Registrar enters the coursework on the student's permanent record, retaining all transcripts from other institutions in the student's permanent file.
Coursework is entered on the student's degree plan according to the petitions.
In the case of prospective students, a preliminary evaluation may be made and sent to the student, along with a condensed statement of the transfer policy and a disclaimer regarding the need for faculty approval. A copy of the evaluation is sent to the Admissions Office to become a part of the prospective student's permanent file.
