Eligibility and Financial Aid 1. Normally you need a 2.8 g.p.a. or better to study off campus. Some programs require a higher g.p.a. If your grades are improving, start this planning process. No more than two semesters may be spent off campus.
Students receive all financial aid while off campus on an approved program, except for work-study.
Bucknell will then pay the tuition component of the program cost. Credit Transfer 1. To receive four Bucknell units of credit, you must complete a course of study equivalent to 15-16 semester hours . Twelve semester hours may result in three Bucknell credits or fewer. On some programs you will need to take five courses, on others more or fewer, depending on what is equivalent to 15-16 semester hours.
