| SOCIAL WORK All Social Work classes need to be evaluated by the degree-granting dean since ORU is accredited by the Council On Social Work Education and fully accountable to them. One exception might be Introduction to Social Work, so long as we can be satisfied that it was taught by a social worker and not another behavioral scientist of some sort. Also, Introduction to Social Services, as taught by some community colleges or four-year colleges, is usually not sufficient to satisfy the Council. Therefore, evaluation of courses by the Social Work Program Director is necessary. | |

Note: If the transfer course has a lower division course number (100-200 level) and has the same title as an ORU lower division course, the course will be transferred as the ORU lower division course. If the transfer course has a 300 level or higher course number but has the same course title as an ORU lower division course, it will be transferred as the ORU lower division course.
If a transfer course is from a two-year institution and has the same title as an ORU upper division course, it will be sent to the Business Department Chair and Dean for review.
Any upper division (300 level or higher) course from a four-year institution that has the same course title as an ORU course will be transferred based on the equivalent ORU course title. However, Strategic Management and Seminar and Senior Paper must be taken exclusively at ORU. | |
