Application to receive credit for previous study (also known as recognition of prior learning) should be made at the time of admission to a degree. Credit for undergraduate study is according to determination of the MCD's Academic Board through its Coursework Studies Committee. In broad terms, applicants for the Bachelor of Theology may receive credit towards their degree if they already hold a degree, and they may also apply for recognition of incomplete theological study taken at another institution. Complex applications for credit can take considerable time to process, especially where reference must be made to the Coursework Studies Committee, so applicants for admission who intend to apply for credit should do so at an early stage. The UFT office can provide further details of credit for the Bachelor of Theology.
Credit is normally not granted for postgraduate coursework study.
