Students transferring to Zion Christian University from another school must provide official academic transcripts for evaluation. Because Zion Christian University deems its courses essential for graduation, a minimum of 30 credits must be completed at Zion Christian University to be granted a degree. Transfer Credit is only considered for courses that meet the following criteria:

• Minimum grade of C or a 2.00 on a 4.00 grading scale
• Taken in an acceptable school
• Applicable to Zion Christian University’s programs

The ReThe Registrar carefully reviews all cases and retains the right to not accept any credits that do not meet the specific requirements.

Zion Christian University does not currently offer, nor does the University require, General Education courses for any programs of study. However, the University does accept General Education course credits transferred from other acceptable postsecondary schools. General Education courses are defined as Liberal Arts courses, which are offered in the Arts and Sciences departments at most colleges and universities. These include studies in the following fields:

Philosophy, mathematics, science, language arts, history, political theory, economics, humanities, sociology, and psychology. Students may also take College Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests and receive General Education credits. Students desiring to take a CLEP examination should contact the College Board at (212) 713-8000 or visit: www.collegeboard.org/clepp
