Graduate Credit Transfer from Other Institutions

Transfer Credit

  1. Students will not normally be permitted to transfer more than 12 graduate semester hours into graduate programs.
  2. Official transcripts from all colleges, graduate schools, or seminaries previously attended must be sent from their points of origin directly to the Office of the Registrar.
  3. No course with a grade below “C” will transfer, and no course can be transferred from another institution unless it corresponds or matches a course in the current BUF catalog. (Descriptions of graduate courses begin on page 75.)
  4. Courses in doctrine are not transferable from non-Baptist institutions.
  5. The student normally will not transfer credit for GR 501. Introduction to Graduate Research or GR 690. Graduate Thesis.
  6. Transferability of credit is at the discretion of the university or any other college or university of the student’s choice, and it is the responsibility of the student to confirm whether or not credits will be accepted by the college or university.
