Admissions

How does Christ College handle transfer students?

A transfer student must make out an application in the same manner as a newly entering freshman. The applicant needs to submit a high school transcript (or equivalent); and if he/she has earned any credit at a recognized higher educational institution, an official college/university transcript is required. The transfer student must not have been expelled (or otherwise removed) from the previous institution for moral infraction recognized as such by the Bible and the historic Reformed Faith, unless this infraction has been repented of and/or successfully dealt with by the church. Evaluation of transfer of credit will be on a case-by-case basis. Where possible, the applicant should send a course description from a catalog and a course syllabus (or equivalent) that describes the course, the instructor, textbooks, and/or readings. This information should also briefly outline the course (if possible). Since the Christ College curriculum is unique in its perspective, there is no guarantee that the institution can accept credit even where course titles are similar and descriptions are apparently equivalent. No course with a grade lower than a "C" will transfer. The student must complete his/her last thirty (30) credit hours at Christ College, unless otherwise exempted.

Can I attend Christ College if I do not have a high school diploma?

Home school students, who have competed their high school requirements, will need documentation verifying such completion.  Applicants who have secured a General Equivalency Diploma (GED), will need to send that verification to the school.  Christ College does not discourage the submission of SAT/ACT scores with application.  Once accepted, students may pursue a degree as if they had a diploma.

Can I attend Christ College if I do not satisfy all the admission requirements?

Applicants who may not fully satisfy all admission requirements may be admitted to take selected regular courses on a part-time basis. Acceptance is given on a course-by-course basis. The student must reapply for each course. Such a student is not a degree candidate.

Can I attend classes at another college or vocational school while attending Christ College?

A student may hold dual enrollment at Christ College and another institution. In fact, if this is possible, Christ College would encourage it. For example, a student might enroll at Christ College concentrating in philosophy, while also enrolling at another college or university majoring in engineering, which is not offered at Christ College.

Does Christ College accept home school students?

Christ College is quite interested in encouraging enrollment of students who have been home-schooled. While some religious colleges look with doubt on home-schooling, and while many public institutions erect difficult procedural barriers to admission, we at Christ College enthusiastically welcome home-schoolers from Christian families. In the application process, we simply would ask that the prospective student send us any and all information that he believes is relevant to assessment, not only of academic skill, but also of potential contribution to the advancement of the Kingdom of God. See Admissions Procedures above. Please see the Christ College catalog for more complete information.
