Credit Earned at Independently or Privately Accredited Institutions

Credit earned at institutions accredited by bodies other than recognized regional accrediting organizations will be considered only if institution is listed in the guidebook Accredited Institutions of Postsecondary Education, published by the American Council on Education (ACE).

A maximum of 30 semester credit hours (or equivalent quarter hours) from independently or privately accredited institutions may be applied to BIS degree requirements.

Orientation Courses and ESL Courses are not eligible for BIS transfer credit.
