Associate of Arts or Associate of Science Degree Transfer | The NNU Core

 A student who enrolls at Northwest Nazarene University with an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree from a regionally accredited institution completed prior to admission will receive:

  1. Junior standing
  2. Transfer credit up to a maximum of 62-semester credits from two-year colleges.
  3. Waiver of the NNU Core Curriculum requirements, with the following exceptions:
    1. THEO1205 Christian Thought and Practice must be completed with a grade of C- or higher
    2. BIBL2205 Bible: Engaging the Story of God must be completed with a grade of C- or higher
    3. Math Proficiency
    4. Students who transfer to NNU will be required to complete only one Cultural Awareness Program (CAP1 or CAP2) course.

Note: A two-year transfer degree does not guarantee a bachelor's degree completion within two years. Course prerequisites, course sequencing, and upper-division requirements must also be met. The waiver of degree requirements for transfer students with associate degrees other than the Associate of Arts (AA) or Associate of Science (AS) will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
