21 DEFERRED ENROLLMENT Applicants admitted into all degree programs may defer enrollment for up to one calendar year. In- dividuals who have not matriculated within this period need to reapply for admission. Denver Seminary offers deferred enrollment for applicants of the MA in Counseling program, however, it is based on space availability. TRANSFER CREDIT Course credits with a minimum grade of "C" ("B" in the Doctor of Ministry program) earned at other accredited seminaries and graduate theological schools are eligible for transfer to the extent that the courses are comparable to Denver Seminary's stated requirements. Course credits approved for transfer must have been completed within the specified time limit in order to be applied toward a degree (see the Program Completion Time Limits policy within this Catalog). No transfer credit may apply to a certificate program. Only transfer credit that applies to a student's degree program will be accepted. All master's-level students must take at least one course in New Testament, Old Testament, and theology from Denver Seminary faculty. Transfer hours are limited to a maximum of eight hours in the major or concentration (nine hours in the MA in Counseling program). The following number of semester hours may be transferred: A maximum of six hours toward the DMin degree A maximum of thirty-nine hours toward the MDiv degree A maximum of twenty-five hours toward the MA degree (20 hours for the MA in Biblical and Theological Studies degree) A maximum of six hours toward the ThM degree When a degree has been conferred at another institution, no more than one-half of the hours applied to that earned degree (not to exceed the maximum hours noted above) may be transferred to a Denver Seminary master's degree program. An official transcript from the institution attended showing satisfactory course completion is required. A course-by-course evaluation is required (as well as English translations if necessary) in order to facilitate the transfer evaluation process for any international institutions attended. World Education Services is recommended for credential evaluations (www.wes.org). Transfer hours are not accepted for non-degree students. Questions regarding the transfer of credits should be directed to the Registrar's Office (registrar@denverseminary.edu). TRANSFER CREDIT DISCLAIMER: Transfer of credit from Denver Seminary to another institution is at the discretion of the receiving institution to determine which courses taken at Denver Seminary are eligible for transfer. ADVANCED STANDING Denver Seminary allows up to twelve hours of advanced standing credit toward MA programs and up to nineteen hours toward the MDiv program, regardless of the way it is earned (no advanced standing is available for MA in Counseling, certificate or non-degree students). Advanced standing credit, which reduces the number of hours needed to complete a degree, may be earned by either or both of the methods detailed below. Students may earn advanced standing credit (through exam or evaluation) within the first two semesters of enrollment with Denver Seminary.
