University Foundation Requirements

SPU认为 大学基金会 requirements to be at the heart of its approach to higher education. Therefore, each transfer student is expected to complete these requirements at SPU. Transfer students with junior or senior standing upon admission will complete 10 credits in Foundation studies with 5 credits in UFDN 3001 “Christian Scriptures” followed by 5 credits in UFDN 3100 “基督教神学.” (If you have just completed the DTA associate degree through the Running Start Program, you are expected to complete at least one quarter at SPU before enrolling in UFDN 3001.) Each transfer student with freshman or sophomore standing upon admission will complete the full 15-credit requirement by completing UFDN 1000 Christian Formation, UFDN 2000 Christian Scriptures and UFDN 3100 基督教神学.

If you have taken Bible or theology courses at a member institution of the Christian College Consortium, up to 10 credits may be accepted toward the fulfillment of the 大学基金会 requirement. Transfer of credit toward Foundation requirements from any other regionally accredited Christian college or ABHE-accredited Bible school may be granted only by petition process. Credits from schools that are not regionally accredited or ABHE accredited may not fulfill 大学基金会 requirements.

注意: 在所有情况下, students must complete at least 5 credits of coursework in the 神学院 (UFDN or THEO discipline) at 西雅图 Pacific University. (THEO 3100 “社区 Bible Study” may not be used to fulfill this requirement.)
