AP Information and College Credit Plus

The Bachelor of Science in Health and Wellness Innovation in Healthcare (HWIH) degree is comprised of prerequisite courses, General Education (GE) coursework, HWIH major classes and electives. Students who plan to apply to the HWIH major should be aware of the following considerations when completing coursework through College Credit Plus:

  • Credit will transfer following the state guidelines. Credit that does not meet a specific degree requirement will be elective credit.
  • Not all College Credit Plus courses apply to the degree requirements for the HWIH major.
  • The College of Nursing requires applicants to complete the direct equivalent coursework to the prerequisite requirements. Students completing College Credit Plus are encouraged to use transferology.com to confirm the transferability of coursework.
  • Students are still required to apply to the major, despite the amount of credit earned.
  • Transfer credit is considered college coursework, and therefore is calculated into your overall GPA for the HWIH application.
