In accordance with guidelines established by the Coordinating Board for Higher Education (CBHE) of the State of Missouri regarding articulation and the transfer of credit, most recently revised in October 2005, Missouri Baptist University grants junior standing to students transferring to the University with an Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree (earned after October 1987) or an Associate of Arts in Teaching (A.A.T.) degree from Missouri institutions which are in compliance with CBHE general education requirements. This signifies that the lower division general education requirements for a degree at Missouri Baptist University have been satisfied by completion of the A.A. or A.A.T. degree. Students transferring with other than an A.A. or A.A.T. degree, or with an Associate of Arts degree which does not meet the above stipulations, are not automatically granted junior standing, and may be required to take additional general education courses. A student transferring to Missouri Baptist University from a Missouri institution who has not completed an A.A. or A.A.T. degree, but who has completed the 42-credit hour General Education curriculum block prescribed by CBHE, shall be deemed to have completed all General Education requirements of Missouri Baptist University.
