Programs of Study

Students should familiarize themselves with other applicable university policies (see the "General Degree Requirements" section of the bulletin). Of special note are the following:

1. A minimum of 32 credit hours of course work must be completed at Belmont University.

2. In compliance with the general degree requirements for all Belmont programs, Liberal Studies students must earn a minimum of 18 elective hours from Belmont and they must complete their final 32 hours at Belmont University through enrollment in and completion of the course work.

3. At least 64 credit hours must be taken from accredited senior colleges and universities. (The 34 credits awarded for previous nursing courses may count toward these 64 hours.) A maximum of 12 hours of "D" work will be counted toward the 67-69 hours of the Liberal Studies self-designed program required for graduation.

4. A minimum of 21 upper-division credits (3000- or 4000-level) must be earned as part of the Liberal Studies degree program.
