![]() ![]() Of course, it is to be expected that courses in Bible, theology, and the like would not transfer to degree programs that include no such courses, such as engineering or architecture, just as those courses would not be able to transfer and count toward a ministry degree at Montana Bible College. ![]() It has sometimes been successful to respectfully inform a registrar’s office or similar of the USDE ruling. ![]() Students who transfer from MBC to these colleges and universities or who pursue graduate education have experienced mixed results. In spite of the final ruling of the United States Department of Education and accompanying official clarification to eliminate the distinction between national and regional accreditation, the reality is that many regionally accredited colleges and universities still do not want to give credit transfers or recognize degrees from nationally accredited colleges and universities. MBC degrees are also readily recognized by graduate level programs at seminaries. Generally, these are also members of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU). MBC credits will readily transfer to other ABHE colleges and universities as well as other regionally accredited Christian colleges and universities. Montana Bible College is nationally accredited by the Association of Biblical Higher Education (ABHE), which is a recognized accrediting body by the United States Department of Education. For example, a student with seven hours of English may reduce the hours needed in social science to five. To make allowances for classes taken on a quarterly basis at other universities, the MBC academic committee may allow slight redistribution of the required credits between categories, provided the total semester hours equal the number required for the student’s emphasis. ![]() A 5 credit class in the quarter system is worth 3 credits in the semester system. NOTE: Credits taken under the quarter system transfer to the semester system at 3/5 value. For questions about transferring credits from other non-accredited schools, please contact MBC. MBC currently has credit transfer articulation agreements with 19 schools: Adelphia Bible School in Ravensdale, Washington Alaska Bible Institute in Homer, Alaska Arrowhead Bible College in Fishtail, Montana Camp Bighorn in Plains, Montana Ecola Bible School in Canon Beach, Oregon Free Lutheran Bible School in Plymouth, Minnesota Gather 4 Him Christian College in Richland, Washington His Hill Bible School in Comfort, Texas Jackson Hole Bible College in Jackson Hole, Wyoming Montana Wilderness School of the Bible in Augusta, Montana Ethnos360 Bible Institute in Jackson, Michigan Nicolet Bible Institute in White Lake, Wisconsin Pacific Bible College in Medford, Oregon Ravencrest Chalet in Estes Park, Colorado Solid Rock Discipleship Program in Long Prairie, Minnesota Southland Bible Institute in Ashland, Kentucky Timberline Lodge Bible School in Winter Park, Colorado Veritas Bible Institute in Pocatello, Idaho and Word of Life Bible Institute in Pottersville, New York. Credit transfer from non-accredited schools is subject to validation and occasionally limited to partial credit. Of these 32 credits, at least 9 credits must be earned in theology. Transfer students must earn a minimum of 32 credits at Montana Bible College in order to receive a bachelor’s degree through the College. Montana Bible College will allow a student to transfer credits from other accredited schools (USDE, ABHE, Regional or CHEA approved), provided the student presents an official transcript showing grades of C or above on subjects parallel in content and credit value to courses in the Montana Bible College curriculum. ![]()
