1983-1984 Academic Catalog

by participating in the College Level Examination Program spon– sored by the College Board. Up to thirty quarter hours can be earned through these programs. Students interested in participat– ing in these programs should contact their high school counselors or the director of admissions for details. Readmission A student whose academic work has been interrupted for one quarter or more must apply for readmission. If he has been out of Cedarville College less than one year, a letter of request for read– mission is needed at least two months before the beginning of the quarter in which he desires to matriculate. This letter should state his educational goal and reaffirm his Christian commitment; it should also contain a brief summary of his current Christian ser– vice activities. If a student has been away from campus for more than one year, an updated pastor's recommendation is required, in addition to the letter of request which states his educational goal, Christian commitment, and reports on the previous year's activities. If col– lege level work has been completed elsewhere, official transcripts should accompany the request for readmission. A student who has been readmitted after one year away from Cedarville College is expected to complete the graduation re– quirements as outlined in the catalog in current use at the time of reenrollment. Transfer Stt1dents Students who wish to transfer to Cedarville should submit, along with their applications for admission, official transcripts of credit from all colleges attended. Credits from accredited colleges are fully transferable as long as they apply to the student's course of study at Cedarville. Courses in which less than a "C" is earned are not granted transfer credit. The college desires to cooperate fully with transfers from Bible colleges and institutes, especially those transferring from schools which are members of the American Association of Bible Col- leges. The college also readily accepts credits from most business and community colleges. Many times students who have earned associate degrees are able to enter Cedarville as juniors. Specific transfer information is available from the director of admissions upon receipt of official transcripts. When computing cumulative grade point averages for students who have transferred credits from other colleges, only the work completed at Cedarville is included. All transfer students are required to attend New Student Orien– tation. Transfer students in their freshman or sophomore year are expected to complete the same number of Biblical Education course as continuing students. Juniors and seniors must complete at least one Biblical Education course each quarter of full-time re– sidence including 21-340 Baptist History. International Students Cedarville College welcomes applications for admission from students of all nations. The college is approved for attendance by nonimmigrants by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. International students should follow the college admissions pro– cedure carefully, submitting their applications well in advance of deadlines so that sufficient time is available for processing and communication. Those coming from countries in which English is not the native language may need to demonstrate their profi– ciency in English by taking the Test of English as a Foreign Lan– guage Examination (TOEFL). Upon acceptance, international students must deposit at the college $7000 in United States currency or submit a certified af– fidavit of support. Full admission to the college will be granted upon receipt of these funds or affidavit. Permission for employ– ment must be secured from the United States Government. No fi– nancial aid is available for international students. Canadian students must present evidence of having passed either junior or senior matriculation with better than passing grades in each of the subjects specified by the Provincial Depart– ment of Education. Those who have completed Grade XIlI are eligible for advanced standing.
