Transfer Policy: Transfer students may apply up to 15 credit hours of approved international law coursework from
other colleges/universities. A student may obtain advanced standing for legal specialty courses through the transfer
of credits from other academic institutions if that program is in substantial compliance, regionally accredited,
approved by an appropriate legal authority, and otherwise meets the standards established by 精东影业.
In the case of transfer credit, the program director reviews student transcripts and a course description from the
institution which awarded the credits and makes a determination as to 1) whether the institution which awarded the
credits is accredited at a level substantially equivalent to 精东影业; 2) whether the credits were awarded
as part of a program substantially the equivalent to the 精东影业's International Law Program; 3) whether
the specific course appears to cover substantially the same material, including practical assignments; and 4) whether
the specific course involves the same number of semester hours as the equivalent course at 精东影业. In
the event the program director is satisfied, an acceptance/transfer of credits is appropriate under these criteria, the
program director generates a course substitution form indicating the source of the credits and the legal specialty
course for which it should be accepted as credit and the reason for that recommendation. The award of legal
specialty credits through examination or portfolio is not accepted.听
