BACHELOR OF APPLIED SCIENCE (BAS)
Concentration: Homeland Security
CRITERIA FOR ACCEPTANCE INTO THE BAS PROGRAM (One of the following):
(A) Student must possess an earned Associate in Applied Science degree in a Criminal Justice or Homeland Security related area,
from a regionally accredited college or regionally accredited technical school. A minimum of 10 semester hours and up to
maximum of 21 semester hours of qualifying applied science credits will be accepted towards the completion of the degree.
Students will be permitted to transfer in a limited number of additional credits from other community college-level course work.
(B) Student must complete related military training from Criminal Justice or Homeland Security. A minimum of 10 semester hours and
up to maximum of 21 semester hours of qualifying applied science credits, as recommended by American Council on Education
(ACE) and been awarded the Military Occupational Specialty (MOS for Army, Air Force Specialty Code [AFSC] for Air Force,
Naval Enlisted Code [NEC] for Navy), may be accepted towards the completion of the degree.
OFFICIAL EVALUATION OF TRANSFER CREDIT: Official evaluations require the following:
 Completion of 6 semester hours in residence at Campbell University.
 Receipt of all official transcripts of previous education and military training that have been mailed directly to your home
campus from the other institution(s). These transcripts include:
o High school or GED (all students).
o All previous colleges attended.
o Military: Joint Services Transcript (Army/Navy/Marines) or CCAF (Air Force) and DD-214 (Veterans only).
o CLEP/DANTES and DLPT scores if applicable.
 Official Student Agreements or Degree Plans are completed when all of the above requirements are met.
MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION:
 Transfer Credit: Campbell University will accept a maximum of 64 semester hours in transfer from any combination of
regionally accredited two-year colleges, ACE-recommended lower level military credit, and CLEP/DANTES. There is no limit
on the number of semester hours accepted from ACE-recommended upper level military and/or CLEP/DANTES credit, or
credit from an accredited four-year institution.
 Residency Requirements: Students must complete a minimum of 32 semester hours of Campbell University courses with
12 semester hours in upper level (300-400) courses.
 Graduation Requirements: All students earning BAS degrees must have a minimum of 124 semester hours and all degree
requirements met in order to graduate. Students are required to have a GPA of 2.0 overall.
 Waived Courses: In the event a course is waived, the credit hours must be made up in electives.
EXPLANATORY NOTES:
 1 Fine Arts: “Appreciation,” “Introduction,” or “Survey” course in art, music, drama, or theatre; “History” courses do not meet
this requirement (e.g., “History of Art”).
 2 English: Students will be placed in the appropriate ENGL class based on placement test scores or completion of college
level English course work. Students having formal evaluation of English skills (e.g., SAT, ACT, AP, CLEP, TABE, ASSET,
Compass, IB) may use those scores. If the student is required to take or transfers ENGL 100, it will count toward the
Humanities elective requirement.
 3 Math: The math elective must be college algebra or higher. Math 110 does not satisfy the General Mathematics
requirement. It is recommended that students complete Math 110 that are lacking sufficient skills required for college algebra
or higher.
 4 Humanities: Any course not already required from the following areas: COMM, ENGL, RELG, PHIL, Foreign Language or
Speech. If the student is required to take or transfers ENGL 100, it will count towards the Humanities requirement.
 5 Social Science Electives: May be chosen from CRIM, ECON, GEOG, POLS, HIST, PHIL, PSYC, ECON, MSCI or SOCI.
 6 Electives: Any course not specifically required in a degree. See the schedule for available elective courses in all disciplines.
This curriculum is for illustrative purposes only. Matriculated students will receive an official degree plan upon
completion of their evaluation of transfer credits.
