Using Grad Credits Towards 2nd BA Degree TESU

[Sacricolist]

Is it possible to use graduate seminary credits to complete a second BA Degree in Religion? The graduate credits were part of an incomplete MDiv degree. Would the graduate credits satisfy the Upper Level requirements for the Religion major?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Possibly. TESU does allow you to use graduate credits as upper level undergraduate credit. You should send your transcripts and apply (free for alum) - I would LOVE to hear how this goes. I've accumulated a handful of graduate credits not in a degree and have almost enough to back-transfer too. I know it's listed in their catalog as possible. I don't know anyone that has done it.

I believe TESU will accept up to 30 grad credits and they will be considered upper level. As long as the credits are RA they should transfer. It is up to TESU as to whether the courses are considered applicable to the AOS and meet 2nd degree requirements (must have at least 24 new credits in the AOS earned after the most recent degree was awarded).
