| transfer_credit | • Transfer Credit (TRACE): Submit credits for evaluation through TRACE. o For transfer credit from non-U.S. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | (See “Conditions of Acceptance of Transfer Credit” in this section for details on the College’s transfer policy.) Transfer students must submit the following: • Application: Submit a formal online application. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Conditions of Acceptance of Transfer Credit Montreat College strives to ensure the highest quality academic experience for all our students. We classify transfer credits into three types as indicated in the table below. • Courses taken at non-accredited “online only” organizations, i.e., StraighterLine, will not be accepted in transfer regardless of ACE recognition. • Physical activity courses graded P (passing): A maximum of 2 may transfer. These are the only courses where a grade of P is acceptable for transfer credit. Transfer students who have earned the Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree from a North Carolina Community College and who meet the minimum requirements for admission to Montreat College will receive transfer credit for all eligible courses, subject to the normal transfer credit policy. • No more than 66 semester hours may be transferred from a 2-year accredited postsecondary institution. • The transfer student may transfer a maximum of 90 semester credits from regionally accredited 4-year postsecondary institutions. • Courses from non-regionally accredited colleges or universities are considered on a course-by-course basis; coursework must have an earned grade of C or better; acceptance of such credits is dependent upon Montreat College’s evaluation of the equivalence of coursework and level of instruction. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Approval of transfer credit for the program core should be finalized prior to enrollment in the degree program. • Credits from regionally accredited institutions will be considered for courses for which Montreat College offers no equivalent course, provided that the transferred course is considered within the general framework of the liberal arts curriculum and is relevant to the degree pursued. Only courses that are academic in nature and purpose will be accepted in transfer. Failure to follow this procedure may result in loss of transfer credit for these courses. • Courses transferred to Montreat College will be assigned the grade of P (passing) and will be considered in earned credit totals but will not affect the grade point average calculation or be included in the graduation honors calculation. Official transcripts are required to receive transfer credit from an approved institution. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Previously earned college-level credit is submitted by the student via the TRAnsfer Credit Estimator (TRACE). This allows for an electronic initial course equivalency evaluation between transfer credits and Montreat courses/requirements where equivalency exists. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | A minimum high school GPA of 3.0 (or equivalent) is required to apply. Credit by Examination A student may participate in a variety of credit by examination programs to earn credit toward degrees awarded by Montreat College. The presence of credit by examination on other schools’ transcripts is not sufficient, including the high school transcript. Advanced Placement Program (AP): This credit by examination program is sponsored by the College Entrance Examination Board for evidence of completion of college-level courses taken in high school. Courses/Exams will be used to satisfy degree requirements when possible and otherwise as electives up to established limits for credit by examination. Defense Activity for Nontraditional Education Support (DSST): This credit by examination program uses various subject area examinations. Educational Credential Evaluators (ECE): This credit by examination program is like other subject area examinations. Military Credit Military credit is treated in the same way as general transfer credit. Following the review of military transcripts by the Office of Admissions and the Office of the Registrar, Department Chairs will be consulted to review courses for major-specific transfer credit. An official Joint Services Transcript (JST) or officially certified DD-214 is carefully evaluated for all details concerning military experiences; credits are awarded at face value. The ACE recommendation for the use of military credit(s) must fit within a Montreat College program for transfer credit to be approved. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Effect of Credits by Transfer, Examination, Military, and Life Experience Transfer credits that have been accepted and count towards the student’s program of study will be used as attempts and completes and included in determining SAP. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | This ensures courses taken elsewhere will achieve the intended result in the student’s degree program. Failure to follow this procedure may result in loss of transfer credit for these courses. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Competency may be demonstrated in any of two ways: o Minimum grade of C in an oral express course (COMM 1220, BUSN 2510, OREC 3212, THEA 3303) o Equivalent class from a regionally accredited institution • Reading Competency is to produce graduates who can demonstrate effective reading skills. Reading competency may be demonstrated in either of two ways: o Grade of C or above in an upper-level literature course o Appropriate CLEP or AP scores, or equivalent class from a regionally accredited institution • Writing Competency may be demonstrated in any of four ways: o Grades of C or above in both ENGL 1111 or ENGL 1131 and ENGL 1112 or 1132 o Appropriate CLEP or AP scores, or equivalent classes from a regionally accredited institution o Accepted transfer credit for ENGL 1111 when student tested out of the ENGL 1112 equivalent at previous school (testing out does not include progressing to the ENGL 1112 equivalent after making less than a grade of C in the ENGL 1111 equivalent) • Computer Skills Competency: All students enrolled at Montreat College must demonstrate computer competence. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Major courses should be available at Montreat College; limits on transfer credits and independent studies should follow institutional limitations. | 2026-2027 | www.montreat.edu | |
