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 DMACC
counseling office.
This transfer guide is designed to help a student at DMACC easily choose courses to
take at DMACC that will satisfy Bethel general education (core curriculum)
requirements through Spring 2012. 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 DMACC objectives, while also completing coursework that Bethel requires.
Contact Bethel or DMACC 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 DMACC 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.
