Denver Seminary

37 Doctor of Ministry students may complete no more than six hours through an individualized study. If the student has any transfer credit, the individualized study hour limit is reduced by the total number of transfer hours received. AUDIT COURSES Audit Without Record Denver Seminary accepts applications for individuals who are not otherwise enrolled as a degree-seeking or non-degree seeking student to audit courses without record. Individuals approved through the application process to audit a course without record are not officially registered in the course, and there is no record of the audit (transcript or otherwise) or attendance in the course available. Restrictions and limitations apply. Please contact the Registrar's Office for more information, eligibility requirements, and the Audit Without Record Application form. Audit With Record Students may register to audit a course with record in accordance with the Registration and Adding/Dropping Courses policies. Denver Seminary students accepted into a non-degree or degree- seeking enrollment may not apply to audit a course without record. Courses may not be converted from audit to credit after the add/drop period. Courses may not be converted from credit to audit after the last day to drop with a grade of "W". Please refer to the course drop and add/drop deadlines within the Adding/Dropping Courses policy. Students who have registered to audit a course will not receive earned credit for the course, and a course taken as audit will not count toward degree requirements. Auditing students may participate in classroom discussions and engage in course activities at the discretion of the instructor, however no work completed is eligible to be submitted for a grade. Audit courses will appear on the student's transcript with a final course grade of "AU". NON-RESIDENTIAL COURSE LIMITS Students enrolled in the Master of Arts in Counseling degree programs may complete up to ½ of their program hours in a non-residential format. Non-residential courses are all those that are not completed at Denver Seminary in a majority face-to-face format. Examples include transfer hours, advanced standing credit (note that any combination of transfer and advanced standing hours cannot exceed ½ of the program hours), thesis/project, training and mentoring courses without an in-class component, individualized study, any course listed as "to be determined" for the day and time it meets, online courses, video-conferenced courses (where the student is not in the same classroom as the professor), and any course taken at a location where the degree or certificate in which the student is enrolled has not been approved. PROGRAM COMPLETION TIME LIMITS All coursework pertaining to a degree or certificate must be completed within ten years (six years for the Doctor of Ministry and seven years for the Doctor of Philosophy program) of the degree conferral or certificate award. This time limit applies to all courses applying to the degree or certificate, including transfer credit and advanced standing. Questions about these time limits should be directed to the Registrar's Office.
