If a student has completed prior college work that is equivalent to a comparable course, it may be permissible to transfer credit hours into a degree program.
Requirements for transfer are:
In some cases a student may possess life experience, but lack transferable credit hours. In such cases the academic review committee will determine the number of credits allowable. The academic committee may utilize a variety of assessment tools in determining if the life experiences are equivalent to the objectives of a course. Some of the assessment tools utilized may consist of: Subject Challenge Test-Outs, Professional Portfolio Review, Professional Reference Review, and other assessment tools.
In order to receive a quick evaluation of your education and life experience, simply fill out (hand-written or typed) the Application/Resume and fax it to us for a decision by phone within 24 hours concerning credits awarded, costs, payment, schedule, etc. You may fax the resume to (281)446-0215. (This is a 24 hour fax line.)
NOTE: Any such experiences/studies must be documented in writing when submitted. Providing false documentation or information is grounds for immediate dismissal.
KCNH has the right to deny admittance to any applicant based on the following:
Programs of study of Kingdom College of Natural Health are designed so courses can be completed with maximum freedom of study and flexibility. When a student enrolls in a program, course assignments and required textbooks are mailed to him/her. When a student completes a course, new materials for the next course will be mailed to him/her. Students are encouraged to contact KCNH by telephone, letter, or email four weeks before the completion of each course. KCNH will in turn ship their next course and textbook without interruption or delay. This method helps a student to maintain his/her momentum, since he/she may be new to the distance education arena. Each course assignment has a due date. This model keeps a student on schedule.
A doctorate level professor will ALWAYS grade or assess a student's coursework. Unlike some colleges that allow course graders (or grading professors) to hold only an undergraduate degree, this method ensures the best education possible for a student. Moreover, professors only grade coursework in subjects they are proficient in.
Every college student is concerned about final exams because their final grade is most likely determined by the final exam. We have learned from experience that many good students actually freeze-up when they realize their final grade will be based on their score on the final exam. Therefore, KCNH's final exam is never more than 3-5 essay questions by open book method and without a proctor. The final exam only constitutes 20% of your final grade. We have taken this stance because the studies at KCNH are so extensive; it seems redundant to allow the final grade to weigh heavily on the results of the final exam.
Each course assignment is shipped with a textbook included at no extra cost. Therefore, students will not need to purchase a separate textbook. If textbooks are not included, it would cause the student to experience a delay in completing their work in a timely manner. All our textbooks are written by the most competent authors who are experts in their field. Offering a degree program at our low tuition rates along with textbooks is an advantage to students. KCNH decided to use this concept since its leaders have many years of experience in the field of distance/non-traditional eduation. Furthermore, these leaders/teachers have successfully mentored and graduated thousands of students. This method has proven time and again to be of benefit to students according to their own testimonies. Some colleges that specialize in long-distance eduction seldom mention what a student should do when they have a question and need to talk with a professor. Not only do we allow students to call us TOLL-FREE on our hotline to speak with their professors, but we encourage this. Few colleges make such a statement since they prefer not to be bothered with telephone calls or emails once a student enrolls. Imagine how wonderful this service is for a student who is struggling with a certain subject.
A student is mailed one course at a time and the approximate time for completion is eight to ten weeks. Textbooks are also included with all coursework. There are no test requirements for students, since the coursework is very thorough and the completed work is a reflection of how much a student has learned. Coursework consists of multiple choice questions, fill-in-the-blanks, essays, true and false questions, and outlines. From time to time students are required to develop lectures recorded on cassette, video, CDs, and DVDs. Some non-traditional educational institutions do not require enough clock-hours for a student, but KCNH is different. To ensure a quality education for a student, we design courses that require 20-30 clock-hours per one credit hour of study. This means a 3 credit hour course will take approximately 60-90 clock-hours to complete depending upon the abilities of a student.
