Credit Transfer

Credits earned at another institution may be accepted by Free Lutheran Bible College to satisfy general education and elective requirements. This is subject to review and approval by academic administration.

All required courses, with the exception of general education courses, must be taken at FLBC. A minimum of 25 percent of total credits must be completed at FLBC. Grades and grade point averages earned at other institutions do not transfer. Quarter-hour credits will normally be converted to semester hour credit.

Students who desire to transfer credits to FLBC must submit official transcripts of all previous undergraduate work as a part of the application process. Coursework with grades of C or higher will be considered for transfer. Credits from previously attended institutions that are not recognized by an accrediting body will be examined on a case-by-case basis by the academic team.

The Registrar’s Office provides services to students related to class schedules, transcripts, and more.
