Transfer Students

Depending on the total number of credit hours a student transfers, each CES institution uses a formula or scale for determining the number of religion credits (residency) remaining for graduation (see table below)

Total Program Credit Hours Minimum Religion Credit Hours
45 or more 8
30-44 6
15-29 4
0-14 2

NOTE:

Transfer of credit from other Universities and Institutes of Religion: Institutes of Religion or other Church schools will transfer as elective credit when the following conditions are met: (1) a letter grade is given; (2) the earned letter grade appears on the LDSBC transcript. Coursework in religious studies from any place other than a LDS Church school or Institute of Religion will not be accepted toward filling the LDSBC religion requirements.
