No transfer credits are accepted to the Advanced Studies Program.
The Barbara Brennan School of Healing is licensed by the Florida Department of Education, Commission for Independent
Education to offer a Bachelor of Science degree in Brennan Healing Science and diplomas in Brennan Healing Science
Professional Studies and Brennan Healing Science Advanced Studies. Presently, BBSH is not accredited. BBSH does not make
any claims regarding the transferability of credits to other colleges or universities. Transferability of credits is determined
by the receiving institution and is based on a variety of factors, including course content, accreditation and licensure.
Credit by Examination
Students may, under certain circumstances, apply to earn credit by examination. Applications for credit by examination
are reviewed by Student Affairs who determines if the student is eligible to take a challenge examination. Eligibility is
based on evidence of relevant education, training and experience. Challenge examinations will be constructed by the Class
Dean under the direct supervision of the School President and include both written and skills evaluation. Students must
earn at least a 75% on all written examinations and skills assessments. Skills assessments will be conducted by a team of at
least two faculty members, one of whom will be the Class Dean. Skill assessments will be scored independently by each
faculty member and students must receive a passing score from each faculty member in order to be awarded credit. No
more than 25% of the credits required for the diploma will be awarded. Students who are unsuccessful on a challenge
examination will be required to complete the corresponding course in order to be awarded credit.
