Credit Evaluation – General Education Requirements
Students who enter with prior course work from an institution of higher education may seek a course evaluation to determine if the coursework satisfies a specific general education course requirement. Applicants may request an unofficial credit evaluation before applying. This is optional, as applicants will receive an official credit evaluation as part of the application process. An unofficial credit evaluation can help students plan additional courses needed to meet Bellin College admission and degree requirements. If approved, the course credits are applied to the student’s record, post admission to the college. Transfer course credit value is maintained when posting the courses to the student record (e.g., 3:3), unless course is transferring from a quarter credit or similar institution. Course syllabi may be requested to complete assessment. A transfer course will satisfy one Bellin College program requirement only. Applicants may request an unofficial credit evaluation before applying. This is optional, as applicants will receive an official credit evaluation as part of the application process.
All general education transfer courses are approved by the Registrar’s Office. Transfer courses are evaluated for acceptance based on several factors, including but not limited to, content, level, credit amount, grade, age of course and transfer school accreditation. Applicants will receive a copy of the credit evaluation identifying the courses and credits that fulfill Bellin College requirements. Currently enrolled Bellin College students can contact Student Services for a review of any general education course they wish to take to satisfy a requirement during their course of studies at the College.
An applicant having courses in-progress (IP) at the time of credit evaluation, application or acceptance to the College must provide official transcripts as soon as the courses are completed. The 3.0 GPA requirement and grades of B or above in each course must be met to remain a viable applicant.
