Bethel’s academic catalog and transfer information can be viewed online at
www.bethel.edu. It can also be sent to you and it is available in the NHCC counseling
office.
This transfer guide is designed to help a student at North Hennepin Community College easily
choose courses to take at NHCC that will satisfy Bethel general education (core curriculum)
requirements. Unless otherwise indicated, one (1) course from each area will satisfy that gen ed
requirement. Pages 16-31 in the 2011-2012 Bethel Catalog provides further information regarding
Bethel’s transfer and general education requirements. In most cases, with careful planning you will
be able to fulfill NHCC curriculum objectives, while also completing coursework that Bethel
requires. Contact Bethel or NHCC for assistance with your planning.
Here are some additional guidelines to consider:
-Most courses required for a specific academic major should be taken at Bethel.
Students in majors that have sequential courses (such as the sciences) must pre-plan
carefully with the specific department at Bethel.
-Any NHCC course taken to satisfy a requirement for a major at Bethel should be
approved by the specific academic department at Bethel.
-Bethel’s programs are designed to be completed in 4 years. Early communication
with you will allow Bethel to help you to determine when it is best for you to transfer.
-Courses that are listed under more than one category can only count once. Students
can choose which category they prefer.
-A grade of ‘C’ or higher is required on each course to be accepted by Bethel.
-An official transcript must be sent to Bethel once the course is completed and grade is posted.
