1975-1976 Academic Catalog

34 Cedarville College quired for one of the majors listed in the previous paragraph. The bachelor of arts degree is awarded in the chosen major. Although this degree program does not have a strictly professional application, the student does have a liberal arts degree from a Christian college, has been able to take several Bible courses, and has had the Christian fellowship and service opportunities only a Biblically-related college can offer. The program also lends itself to preparation for careers in foreign missionary service. It is possible for persons having the R.N. to get employment in area hospitals while enrolled in Cedarville, and there are some limited possibilities for employ– ment in the college health center. The degree granted in the previously described nursing program is not to be confused with the bachelor of science in nursing degree which is frequently required for those working in hospital supervision and professional nursing education. Pre-Medical and Pre-Dental A student desiring to attend a professional school of medicine or dentistry should examine the catalog of the professional school, and work closely with his academic counselor in preparing his program of study. Typically, the student will major in Biology or Chemistry, described in the Science and Mathematics sec– tion. A description of the pre-pharmacy program offered in cooperation with the College of Pharmacy at Ohio State University is described in the Science and Mathematics section of the catalog. Correspondence Study Although correspondence study seldom can replace the experiences gained through the actual classroom instruction and discussion, it is recognized that occasional utilization of correspondence study is necessary. The total number of quarter hours of correspondence study accepted toward completion of degree requirements shall not exceed fifteen. In order for corres– pondence study to be acceptable, prior permission must have been received for each course from the instructor of the course involved, the academic counselor, and the Registrar. Correspondence study is not counted as residence credit, and therefore can not be counted toward the residence requirements. Permission forms are available in the Registrar's office. Credits received for correspondence study are treated in the same manner as transfer credits. Study Abroad Program of Christian Colleges (SAPOCC) Students planning intensified study in languages are encouraged to participate in the SAPOCC program sponsored by King's College, Briarcliff Manor, New York. Three different programs are offered in France, England, Germany and Spain. Cedarville cooperates in this program with other Christian colleges. SA– POCC is a unique experience for Christian young people because it provides them with Christian living, fellowship, and Christian service opportunities in the foreign country as well as an excellent academic program. The Educational Development Program The Educational Development Program is organized to assist some students to overcome certain academic deficiencies as shown by their high school grades
