BACHELOR DEGREE
PROGRAM Applicants twenty-five years of age or older may
enter a Bachelor degree program with a minimum of two years of undergraduate credit (30 semester units) or six years
of credit for documented life/work experience or a combination equivalency thereof. It is preferable for the applicant to
have completed two years of undergraduate work before entering Alpha University, as the University does not generally offer
lower division courses.
Applicants entering the University with only one year of transfer credit (plus three
years of documented life/work experience credit) will need to complete 60 units of credit since 120 total semester units are
required for graduation. Applicants enrolling with more than 120 semester units of acceptable transfer credit may be required
to complete a minimum of 15 semester units of coursework through the University to earn a Bachelor of Hypnosis degree.
To graduate a student must:
1. Complete a minimum of 120 semester units of acceptable credits, at least 60 of which must be upper division. 2. Complete a minimum of 15 semester units with Alpha University. 3. Complete an organized degree curriculum or an approved program of independent study of at least 30 upper

program with a Bachelor degree or equivalent. The Bachelor degree equivalency may be recognized if the applicant
has the equivalent of four years of acceptable undergraduate college work through transcripts and extensive professional level
life/work experience or more than four years of acceptable transcripted college work. An applicant may request credit
for prior learning experience for up to fifteen (15) credits for post baccalaureate work. The minimum requirement of 30 units
of graduate credit with 15 units of course work at Alpha University may be waived at the sole discretion of the Academic Dean.
