III.  Approval of the minutes from 9.9.15.

Action Items:

IV.  ACU’s acceptance of transfer credit to fulfill university requirements. See proposed language below:

ACU will recognize transfer credit from courses that meets university requirements at another accredited institution as meeting the university requirements for all Bachelor’s Degrees here.

• Matriculated students who do not bring in Math as part of their pre-enrollment credit (i.e. Dual Credit, AP, accredited transfer courses) must take MATH 120 or higher at ACU, or transfer a course equivalent to MATH 120 or higher from an accredited institution. Additional course requirements may be necessary in degrees that require courses greater than MATH 120 (i.e. MATH 123, 124, 130, and 185).
• Matriculated students who wish to satisfy ACU’s Communication requirement may only transfer credit from Speech or Communication courses that meet the university requirements at another accredited institution.  Courses in English composition or Foreign Language will not satisfy ACU’s Communication requirement but may be applied to other portions of ACU’s university requirements.
• The university’s policy for awarding credit for Advanced Placement (AP) scores will supersede AP credit awarded by another institution and transferred to ACU.  (Example:  if ACU requires a 4 on the AP test to receive credit for a two-semester sequence of courses (6 credits) and another university awards those six credits with a 3 on the AP test; the student will only get credit for the first of the sequence of courses at ACU).
